I think you may have given a toxic medication to your cat. Many antiinflamatories are toxic to cats and can cause them to bleed like this and become anemic (low blood count). This is a life-threatening emergency and Emi needs to go to the vet immediately to ensure she makes it. Make sure you bring the pain medication and anything else you may have given her to the vet with you, so they can treat her appropriately. I hope Emi can get to the vet soon and she recovers well.
