Hello, & thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Kittens are pretty resilient, & we often see these heart stopping accidents with absolutely no serious effects to the cat or kitten. If the kitten seems comfortable, no difficulty or abnormal breathing, then he should be fine. If you notice any difficulty walking, coughing, bleeding from mouth, nose or rectum, please see your veterinarian immediately. Hopefully, Coffee will be fine. Take care.

    If externally he seems fine, then there is really nothing to do at home but watch him for any changes. If possible take him to a veterinarian to evaluate for any internal injuries. Look in the mouth for any fractured teeth as well. Best of luck and I am so glad he seems ok!
