We did the same thing. Shots, IV's and food but she wouldn't eat. Turned out one of her teeth was rotting under the gums and her not eating was what was shutting down her kidneys. They pulled the tooth and we continued the treatment and she healed up. But they said her life might be slightly shorter now.
My sister had a cat Gemini, that was a very rare breed and found out his breed gets s kidney problem that is un-curable and she did the same thing you did and he didn't make it.
Sometimes you just never know and there is nothing you can do but enjoy the time you have.
