Sprained Leg??!!!

So she's coming out to eat the first time since moving into her new home and she jumps from my palm and falls maybe 3 inches into her water dish. Now she is walking with her paw tucked under. She let me squeeze and tug on it and doesn't seem to be in any pain. She is climbing, dropping, and walking around actively with it tucked under. Could it just be a sprain that will work itself out? Don't have $ for a vet visit right this second and she really isn't acting like she's in pain... anyone seen this before?

I'm glad to hear that she is doing much better now. Thank you for keeping us posted. I still would keep a eye on her in case. Take care and have a happy and save new years.
