If she still hasn't really eaten on her own the last few days, please get her back to the vet ASAP. Cats can develop liver problems if they stop eating over a short period of time, although it sounds like you are syringe feeding her regularly to keep food in her. Keep doing that.

Did your vet give you an appetite stimulant? That sometimes helps perk up the appetite quite a bit. Generally they prescribe Cyproheptadine (inexpensive). Your vet will have to help solve the underlying problem, but something like Cypro will cause the cats to eat in the mean time. Sometimes, just a couple solid meals will cause them to start eating on their own again.

At her age, she is prone to Senior ailments (kidney, tyroid, etc.) that hopefully the vet has tested for so you can treat her.
