I know this might be the wrong forum but i only created this account to ask this one question:
How do i make it up for her?

Heres how it happened: I moved the fan next to me and her paw was underneath it and i just kind of like put my leg on it for some reason and her paw was beneath the fan when i was doing and now she squealed really loudly and lifted her paw up and went to her mother.

I really dont know if she's okay but i kind of feel bad and want to make it up for her.

Is she limping at all on it? If her paw is okay and not hurt, then she will forgive you pretty quickly, don't worry.

Agreed. I don't think they hold grudges especially at a young age like that. A couple hours and she will probably not even remember it happened. As previously stated make sure she's not limping or not wanting to put it on the ground and she should be fine

Cats don't hold grudges, so she won't be mad at you. You do need to check that no bones are broken. If not, she'll be all right. If she's injured, you'll need to call a veterinarian for advice.

How old are the kittens? You can put different colored collars, or ribbons, or colored string on them to identify who is who. Painting one claw with different colored nail polish is also an option.

It might also be a good idea to confine them all to one kitten-proof room for now.

When they wake up, see if the two that look identical are walking okay and not limping.

Kittens are bouncy and forget quick when something shiny comes around lol I stepped on my little one when she was 3 weeks old and she let out a nasty yelp....I felt guilty, she went and gave me stink eye for a half hour then we play fought and she ate some food. You're all good.

How's kitty doing?

I would just watch them when they wake up and if they are walking fine I wouldn't worry about it. Any limping or anything like that would be better to see a vet. Cats are pretty forgiving.

My cats are pretty large cats and they are always tripping me in the kitchen trying to see if I have any food (or if they can possible get a treat with enough convincing). I have to be so careful walking in there. I did step on a paw once- he let out a huge cry! I thought for sure I would need to go to the ER vet. Nope. He was fine, no limping, no pain, and jumping like a maniac everywhere to see if I had any food. He almost immediately forgot what had happened.
