Hi and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Sorry to hear about Raven. It is possible that this will pass but if she doesn't get better you will have to take her to your veterinarian for treatment. Your veterinarian can do a physical exam and then advise some tests or x rays to assess her condition. She may need fluids, medicines for nausea/vomiting/diarrhea, pain medicines, etc. So if she doesn't get better within the next 12-24 hours, you should have her evaluated. Good luck with Raven
