Re: Reverse sneezing
Katy does it quite often, it is scary when they 1st do it! Usually Katy stops be herself but sometimes I have to pat her chest quite hard between her front legs.

Re: Reverse sneezing
It isn't unusual. If something irritates the lining of their nostrils they will try to expel it by 'snorting' or reverse sneezing.
Don't get me wrong, there are health problems associated with reverse sneezing, but the occasional episode should not alarm!

It's easy to stop just place a finger over one nostril and it will stop within seconds.

Not always, but a good way to start.

It's pretty scary when you first hear it!
