I brought my 1 year old Siamese boy, Goliath, home last Saturday. He adjusted great! But for the past two or three days, I've been noticing a lot of sneezes. They sound kind of wet but no porphyrin and no other strange noises on top of that. Was going to wait til Saturday so it's been a full 7 days, but do typical "new home sneezes" last that long...or should I consult the Vet. I love my ratties very much, but if I wind up taking him to the vet for what's totally normal, I will be out 90 bucks :emb:
 
I would probably wait a bit longer for him to be adjusted to his new home. Make sure there are no scents, smoke or fragrances around him. Change his bedding to just newspaper for now, in case it is a reaction to the bedding. What bedding do you use?
