Lol, mine always seem to come in series of 3's and no matter where in the world I've lived, as far back in life as I can remember, its been a morning ritual.

My daughter sneezes exactly 7 times before she goes to sleep. She has done that since she was little and my husband has sneezing fits and we figured out he was allergic to the lint in kleenex and napkins so he has to use those hypoallergenic kleenex and he is fine...I have an aunt like that also. Who knew?

The photic reflex, if I remember Ear/Nose/Throat anatomy classes, tends to cause several sneezes in a row......but also there is dust, dust mites, allergens of all types...animal dander etc.

Like the fireman, NO WAY to stop this reflex once started...

I should probably clarify- by 'in a row' I mean they are usually separated by less than a half-second, just one after the other. A veritable sneezing fit.
Strangely enough, I recently adopted a black cat who sneezes the same way. And she does sound rather silly

You & Blackie look after each other....just don't go sneezing at the same time.

Mine are seconds apart or longer..... Yes, our cats have had the rapid-fire sneezing on occasion.
