Unfortunately without seeing Tuca in person, I can't say if it's broken or not. There could be a fracture in the bone, and a small fracture could allow her to walk and climb but have pain when touched. You will need to take her into the vet to get an x-ray done of her paw, that is the only way to tell if it's broken or not. I recommend taking her into the vet in the morning. I hope this helps!
