Complete battery drain only after attempting jumpstart

'04 Arc; I'm waiting for a new starter cable to arrive -- 2 years of long starts have finally become no-starts.
Meanwhile, car has been sitting for a week, and I was able to jumpstart it easily last week. Before jumpstart attempt yesterday, I had 12.33V, so, dead, but not the worst I've seen. Couldn't get it started, and had to get to other Saab chores. This morning, I now have 10.3V.
I've never had a battery go from pretty dead to absolutely completely beyond dead after failing to jumpstart. Is this a thing, and if so, what do I need to do to prevent it from happening again?
