Could possibly be an ulcer but the only way to know is for your vet to examine and respond according to what is found. Call the vet and ask for call-back today. Let your vet know the details. You may need an emergency appointment today. If your vet is thinking ulcers and that that tomorrow would be okay for an appointment then see if you can pick up the liquid prep of Carafate at a pharmacy today (easier to use than the tablets) and have a vet appointment tomorrow.
Bebe MUST eat and MUST drink. Yes, stick with gentle food like meat baby food right now.

If you get "Ferrets" magazine pull out the issue with Bruce Williams' ulcer article to read.

Is Bebe dehydrated? If so, she needs to see the vet today.
I am inclined to think that an emergency appointment is pretty likely to happen for Bebe today.
