You can try some mineral oil or coconut oil to see if that will help get the glue from her fur. She is likely exhausted from trying to get off the glue trap. If she doesn't start perking up in the next day or two or if she is refusing to eat (especially her favorite treats) then I would have your vet take a look at her. You vet will be able to make sure everything looks okay and prescribe her any pain meds if needed. I hope this helps!
