Earlier this year, my white kitty named Blizzard lost a lot of weight.
She had previously been.. ahem rather round and spoiled, and was probably too fat to begin with.
We brought her into the vet, where they found a cancerous mass consuming her abdomen.
She hadn't eaten in days, since the mass was blocking passage to her stomach.
She, too, got the strange behavior. She would cry for food, but not be able to eat it.
She started to hide.
She would still purr when pet, but her breath smelled like flowers.
The vet told me that she could no longer maintain her own body temperature, and was actively dying.
I held her as they gave her the shot.

Even though I rationally know that what I did was a mercy to her...
I still left that place feeling like I had killed my cat.
I was ruined inside for months.

But, if you believe anything, believe this. It WAS a mercy.
It sounds like your kitty's internal organs were failing rapidly, and all she would know from that is pain.
You did her a favor.
You gave her a quiet, comfortable end to what could only be suffering.

Her life may have ended there, but it was an end surrounded by love.
The rest of us can only hope for something as good as that.
