I had a real scare this morning. Roxy was laying beside me on her back with her head hanging off the edge of the couch. She was sleeping quietly. Then all of a sudden she kind of gasped for air. I picked her up and she was limp and her eyes were rolled back in her head. I kind of shook her. She then came around, but kind of slow. She laid back down and tried to go back to sleep, but I wouldn't let her.

She seems to be acting okay now, but it really scared me. Has this ever happened to anybody. Could she have put pressure on her trachea and couldn't get her breath by laying on her back with her head off the couch?
