Maybe a prolapse. I would get her to a vet asap.

Sand Dog is right! This is a life or death situation and she must get to the vet immediately!

Here is a Q & A by a Vet about Cloacal Prolapses.

It definitely sounds like a prolapse. The parts that are sticking out of her body need to be kept moist until the vet can put them back in where they belong. If you don't keep them moist they will go necrotic (darken in color, die).
