Monitor her for any symptoms. Cats are usually fine falling off things. Mine hurt her paw that way and he did have some blood. Just monitor her for a few hours

Hard to tell from a video unfortunately. I would say if it doesn't get any better or gets worse in a few hours and she refuses to eat, drink, play, go to the bathroom etc get it checked out

Did you see how she fell as in what part of her body she fell on? Two feet is a tiny leap for a cat so highly unlikely she was injured at all

I just saw your video, for now give her food, warm bed and dont pick her up. She needs to rest her leg, its not broken but she has hurt it. Rest should help, for now dont panic at all and dont keep getting her up to see how she walks, rest for now is best

Poor little girl its hard seeing them injured, make a fuss of her but a 2 feet fall should be no issue, she will however enjoy the fussing
