Default finger caught in latch

Feeling like a bad parent right now -- we put Angel in her carry case this morning while we moved her cage (2 man job) to the car. Angel discovered that she can push the lid open if she simultaneously pushes around the latch. The first time she did this I didn't believe her mum had shut the lid properly so I put her back in and carried on with the travel prep. I noticed her going frantic in the box, she had failed to open the lid but got her little fingers stuck in the latch as it snapped back shut after she failed to lift the lid.

I managed to release some pressure off the latch ( very tricky as you have to push it to release it and her paw was trapped in it) and she fell back into the floor of the case.

Now she seems ok but her fingers ( the inner 2) are very red. She seems unfazed and if it starts to bother her i will take her to the vet.

My concern is something is damaged in her fingers despite her being seemly ok. Any advice welcome.
