Kitty cold
I think Nero has a little cold. He has been sneezing alot and his nose seems a little wetter. Im probably just worrying, but would it clear up itself or will it need something to get rid of it?

How old is your kitty? Has it had its shots? It may have an upper respiratory infection. I suggest you take it to a vet to be checked out.

Is your cat vaccinated & has he had any recent exposure to anything weird? New pets? New cleaners in your home? New plants in or around your home? Is the sneezing congested? Wet/Dry sneezing? What color is the mucus?

Make sure his appetite is still good as sometimes a stuffed up nose will cause kitties to go off their food. You could add about 250mg of L-lysine to his wet food twice a day, and if he gets more congested, hang out with him in the bathroom while a hot shower is running. Otherwise, there isn't much a vet will be able to do. They tend to be trigger-happy with the antibiotics, and unless there is a secondary infection, antibiotics are useless against viruses.

He is up to date on shots, and i think allymack said he was 7 now. His sneezing seems to be mostly clearing up now, still a couple more than usual but nothing that seems to be worrying my any more! There was no mucus from the sneezes, which is why i assumed it wasnt anything too serious.

Okay if there is no mucus or other major problems follow what SCM said and your kitty should start to feel even better soon I only go to the vets for stuff like this if it lasts more than a couple days or they start to not act right . Otherwise i keep stuff on hand and I've not really ever had any major problems
