4) Not sure about purring habits, but it does seem like she's scoping out a hidey-hole of some sort.

In my experience, when cats are sick they will find a hiding spot. If you can, make that spot comfortable for her and make sure there is lots of water nearby.

This. I can't say what's wrong with your cat since I'm not a Vet and don't have personal experience with it, but unless the cat is poisoned or unless this is very aggressive/blindsiding, I'd recommend giving it food/water wherever she chooses to hide and come around to check on her every now and then. If she's not deathly ill she should make it until you can take her too a vet.

If it's an issue of puking I'd hazard a guess and say she'll probably make it since those kinds of illnesses kill pretty slowly. I've had 5 cats in my lifetime and the three that died all tended to throw up a long time before dying and suffering from progressive weight loss. Now, I've never had a cat that was 19, so I can't say for sure, she could just be dying really fast, but it doesn't sound like it to me unless she ingested something deadly.

If she can make it until you can go to a Vet they'll know what's up for sure.
