Oh no, poor Ella! It does sound like she has a vaginal prolapse. I would have her seen be vet right away. If the tissue is left out too long, blood supply could be cut off leading to death of the tissue and/or the tissue could become infected. I would take Ella into an ER vet or find a vet on call to see her now.
