My bunny has been dry sneezing a lot. There is no sign of mucus and her eyes are not watery. She is eating and playing as usually. I can’t seem to identify why she has been sneezing because I clean her cage twice a day and I have recently vacuumed my room. She has been shedding a lot, but I haven’t heard of shedding being a cause for sneezing in bunnies. Any advice or thought will be appreciated.

Ask your Vet to examine her, dry sneezing can be due to a variety of reasons including problems related to the lungs and/or heart.
If you use wood shavings as litter remove them, they are known to cause respiratory tract inflammation
Too hot/dry environments can do the same- eg a centrally heated poorly ventilated room
Avoid using any scented cleaning products, perfumes, air fresheners in the environment
