If your rabbit sneezes for just a day or so. It is probably nothing to worry about. Howevery if it keeps persisting for over a couple days your rabbit probably has a cold. Colds in rabbits can be very hard to get rid of and can be easily spread if not careful.
I'd recommend taking your rabbit to the vet and having your vet take a culture sample to determine the strain causing the cold. There are about 4 different common strains. Don't let the vet just assume it is pasteurella and prescribe a medicine to treat pasteurella. If it is not pasteurella it could make the cold strain more resistant to antibiotics and harder to cure. After the vet takes a culture they can determine what strain is causing it and prescribe the proper antibiotic.
Make sure to clean your hands after handling the rabbit with the cold before you handle any other rabbits you might have. And don't let that rabbit come into direct contact with any other rabbits you might have until its cold is cured.

Bring your bunny to the vet as soon as you can. It's not okay if your bunny is constantly sneezing (the odd one is okay becaue it could be a stray hair or hay dust) but frequent sneezing could well be a sign of illness.

he could just have a cold, or allergies. try changing his food, or bedding. or if theres something by his cage that could be cuasing it. try giving him so of thoes vitamin c drop treats, if he has a cold it could help. =)
