    Sounds like it could be FIP. Are their bellies swollen/round in shape? The could also have FeLuk or FIV. It would be important to have them tested, as well as the mother. Unfortunately there is no cure for any of those as they are all caused by viruses. Your best bet is to take the litter and mother to the vet and have them checked out. That way if something can be done to save them, you can do it. If not, it would be best to euthanize the sick ones to prevent them from suffering.

    Hope this helps, it is so sad to see them decline like that and not know what to do to help.

    Probably something genetic (inbreeding) or neurological. Maybe take them to the vet and see if there is anything that can be done.
