If she hit her head and cannot stay awake this is an emergency that may require veterinary intervention. If she is acting normally now, able to walk and eat then you can monitor and reassess tomorrown but if she is unresponsive or lethargic or difficult to rouse then she needs a veterinary assement asap. Best of luck and I hope she's ok. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
