Sneezing?!?

[sausage4ever]

I can't get this on audio becuase I have nothing to record it with but Caillou makes a weird sound every now and again. I had him on Baytril and I seemed to do nothing. I have been calling it sneezing but don't really think it is, he seems to chirp/peep like a small bird who is sneezing, he has no poryphin discharge around his nose. It doesn't seem like any one else but him does this either and I have had him for three months. He is a very voval rat always squeaking at me for something or another when I pick him up. I am wondering if anyone knows what this may be and if it's a sign of anything?

Thanks

It is a sound that seems to indicate an upper respiratory illness but then it seems to subside on it's own. My sister had a girl that did this loud sneeze/cough type of thing all her life. Yet she was never sick... lived to 33 months.

OKay I feel a bit better, I hate being in another city than the vet but I get discounts there and they know my boys.
