I am so sorry to hear that your pet Kitana is so ill. Her white gums and pinna indicates that she is in shock either due to blood loss, red blood cell destruction or some other underlying illness. She needs to be seen immediately by your nearest vet. Hopefully this is something that is reversible and she can recover soon! I wish you all the best moving forward. Best of luck and take care! : )
