: we do. urgent. we hate to lose her.

: him and she is twice the size.

Take her to a vet as soon as possible! If you can't get in right away, try to find out what she ate and you can contact your local poison control for advice. But, I would certainly try to get her seen at a vet hospital. This link will give you some vet info in your area (hopefully).
