Is she sick or is she ok, she was even given the nasal spray to avoid respiratory problems.

Some shelters don't give all the shots to right before you take them. It is possible he already started getting an URI before you got him and it wasn't noticed. It could also be an irratation from the nasal application, It could also be something at your house causing an irratation. Air fresheners, hair spray, carpet cleaner anythig.
Keep an eye on him. If there is any drainage from the eyes or nose he may need some antibiotics.

I am in college to be a Vet Tech and the most logical reason for this, is possibly the change of environment. Just like humans animals can have allergies. I would suggest keeping the kitten on the nasel spray and if it does not go away in a week or so, take the kitten to your local vet office and have her checked out.

She may have been incubating the flu before the shot, this often happens and it appears the shots caused it, but they haven't,
It could be something in the new house causing a reaction or allergy. Isolate her from any other cats you have as a precaution, so if it is serious she doesn't infect them. If the sneezing continues, or it gets worse or other symptoms develop such as runny eyes or wheezing etc, then go to the vet straight away.

I have never done nasal vaccines on any of my cats or kittens, so I dont know if that can cause sneezing, I would think so. But if she has any discharge in her eyes, nose or sounds congested, she may have a URI, and would need antibotics, such as Amoxi or Clavamox.

New environment, new smells. That'll cause sneezing for a while.
My cat sneezed for 2-3 days after I brought her home. She was just fine, afterwards. They just have to adjust to the new scents.

That happened to my kitten, she sneezed, had runny eyes, and slept alot. she needed to go to the vet and get on clavamox. She was much better after a week or so.

They can still have an upper respitory virus - it usually goes away by itself after one to two weeks. If after 2 weeks she still is sneezing then you need to take her back to the vet.
Enjoy your kitten!
Good luck!

It's your house. Dust and all, she'll develop and be fine as she ages. We are about to get a steel blue cat. She'll need a gas mask in our house. We live here.

She might have what is commonly referred to as "Kennel Cough". It's nothing too serious, but I would call a vet just to make sure.
