Oh no, very sorry to hear.

What exactly happened? They're pretty tough on the whole, but if there seems to be any spinal damage, it would definitely be best to get her to a vet. Can she move about normally or does she seem nervous or hesitant?

In what way is her breathing noisy?

All the very best. x

She can move about fine. wen she fell she was nvestigating her new house and decided to climb up her background then fell off arse over head and with a big slash into her water. Could it just be water in her nose?

Ah!

Sounds very much like it lol!

Keep an eye on her but if she can move with ease and there's no swelling or discolouration of her underside and she doesn't seem to be in any discomfort, I would guess that she's breathed in a load of water. You might see water bubbles coming out of her nose.

But - if she goes on whiffling or wheezing, or if she seems to be in any discomfort when moving, or hanging her head up or down as if to relieve nasal discharge, or anything out of the ordinary, contact your local rep vet - they will usually be happy to have a chat about the animal before arranging consultation.

But in the circs, does sound to me like she just got a mouthful of water - silly girl! All the very best with her!
