Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Based on your description and the photos you provided, I am very concerned about Joker. I would get her seen by an emergency veterinarian as soon as possible as she could have ingested a toxin and / or she could be in shock. The sooner she is seen the bettter. She may also be extremely dehydrated, which has led to her being in shock. If she is in shock, this needs to be addressed immediately. I hope Joker gets better! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
