My new berk boy (month and a halfish) is sneezing quite a bit. He sounds snotty when he sneezes as well, and he goes through times when he doesn't sneeze then he'll sneeze a lot pretty randomly. I'm calling the vet tomorrow to see the nearest time they can fit me in. Is there anything special i can give to him to help him out until then? He doesn't sound lung wheezy as far as i could hear, just congested in his nose. He is still active and has been drinking very well and is eating too thankfully. (little troublemakers my two new boys are.. one is sick and the other one bit me today!  )

You can keep the air moist, either by using a humidifier or boiling a pot of water on the stove.  This is important especially if you have the heater on in your house.

A teensy bit of chocolate can help ease breathing, too.
