"Your cat could be allergic to you."
OK, I know that was sarcastic and it won't help you, but that was funny! :-D
Sneezing many times in rapid succession one time isn't as worrisome as sneezing heavily many times throughout the day. Look for other signs of illness if your cat starts sneezing frequently for a long time.
Does s/he have a runny nose?
Signs of a fever are a hot, dry nose and hot paw pads.
Loss of appetite is another thing to look for. Sometimes a cat stops eating because s/he's feeling sick and is just not hungry, but sometimes it can mean the cat's nose is really congested and a dulled sense of smell makes the cat not want to eat.
Cats can also have seasonal or environmental allergy problems just like people do. Watch him or her carefully and if the sneezing gets worse see your vet.

Not necessarily. If he is eating and drinking, acting like a normal kitten and there is no discharge from eyes or nose it is probably not a problem.....but
if he continues to sneeze......5,10 15 times a day, developes any discharge, stops eating, becomes lethargic or depressed...........there may be an issue that the vet needs to check into.
Also, if it really concerns you call the clinic....phone calls with questions are free.

Cat do sneeze....if the reocurrence is often..not just consecutive..he could have feline upper respiratiory infection, or allergies...which would need to be checked and treated by a vet.
If it keeps happening...on a daily basis..or if it gets worse..he would need to be checkout out.

No, she just got a snootful of something. Sometimes cheap kitty litter can cause dust.

Your Kitty is probably ok. Have you noticed anything else unusual? If they have a virus often their eyes get runny.

Dust up the nose most likely. Not a problem.
