AJ does sound pretty bad off. If you can get water in her, she can wait until the morning to see a vet. If she won't drink any water, you have to take her into an ER vet right away. Should she drink water, try offering her some boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice. Get her into a vet in the morning.
