9 year old loosing lots of weight - urgent (please)

Looking for advice please.

My 9 year old axolotl has been loosing weight gradually over the last few months - I try to feed regularly but she's just not eating. She'll eat a tiny bit. She's very thin now. I'm suspecting old age really :( - she lives alone. She's always been feisty, fat and a good eater. But she's none of that anymore :(.

a) is there anything I can do to help her?
b) If the answer is no, what is the best way to euthanase her? (not looking immediately of course, but she has deteriorated quite a lot in the last 3 months, so I'd like to make her as comfortable as possible)

Thank you in advance
