When my kidney-failure cat went into his final decline, I found that he would eat baby food - chicken, turkey, lamb, beef. Even if he'd only eat a tablespoon or two warmed up in the microwave for a couple of seconds, it was a treat that he enjoyed when no other food could tempt him to eat.
It is a hard time and you have my sympathy. Your cat is lucky to have you caring for her and working to make her days enjoyable.
