I had a cat when growing up that was born around the same time as me (she was a bit older than me actually, by a few months). I know what it's like when you see them grow old. I'm actually surprised, because my cat lived until she was 20, and we didn't particularly give her special care or anything.
About your cat's underside being wet, maybe your cat is loosing bladder control? It sounds nasty, but when my cat got to a certain age she couldn't make it to the litter box anymore, especially while sleeping (often with me, which would make for some long mornings...) It's just a guess though, just seems likely to me that your cat just lost control while laying down. But I'm no vet.
