My 15 year old cat is peeing, and pooing everywhere but the litterbox. What is wrong with her?

Update: She is family, our companion, and the vet says she is healthy.
Answer
Casey:
She's extremely old. she's probably becoming senile and loosing control of her bowls. It might be time to talk to the vet about having her put down. Unfortunately, there's nothing you can really do to fix the problem.

Jack:
how long has it been since her last vet visit? 
 
A cat that has suddenly become hyperthyroid can lose control like that. 
 
Best to call the vet on Monday and get her seen. Senior bloodwork may provide a clue as to what is going on.
