Can squirrels have allergy problems?

I have noticed for couple weeks that my little man, it sounds like he is sneezing. He does this a couple times a day. Should I be concerned? He does not have any problems like runny nose or congestion. I just sound like he is sneezing.

Iwould assume that they can, as I can't imagine how they wouldn't. Keep watching him though. I'm always paranoid about odontoma.

Any person or animal can have allergies..... my lasha was allergic to fleas and had to take Benadryl. Is there any way you can upload a short video of your squirrel sneezing? --I am wondering if his sneezing is regular squirrel behavior or if it might be a mouth, sinus or tooth issue. How old is your squirrel?

Thank you, I was busy all weekend. But ironiclly he has not done it since last Thursday. I think I had must have still had on some purfume that he could smell. So when I got home from work on Friday I changed my shirt and did not wear any purfume all weekend. And he has not done it again. He does not have any sinus drainage or any problems breathing. He is healthy. I am going to have to really watch what I am wearing. I could not smell it was still on me but I guess he could.
