I am not sure about the dryness of the nose but sneezing may be a sign of Upper Respiratory Infection. A visit at the vet's should clear all doubts. My little girl Cheerio came to me with the same problem and with antibiotics + under close observation she got better. I will keep my fingers crossed for your kitty. Hope there is nothing too serious

I have read online about it staying in their system. The vet told me that everything should be fine after having seen her the second time (when I had gone through all the antibiotic doseage). I also have another pet, Frosty that is 7 moths old, just a few months older than Cheerio. They are both fine now.
I strongly hope that that the URI hasn't returned and it is either an allergy or an insignificant kitty cold. Your kitty is in my thoughts!
