This will work for them, Are they drinking water? As long as they have water accessible all day, this plan is ok for them.

This is good to hear about Number Three!!
Are the 3 kittens splitting one pouch of wet food per day?
If so, they may need an additional pouch per day to share.
Excellent that you received the food!
I am relieved to hear that the third kitten is having normal poop.
You are doing a terrific job!

yup one pouch with rice is enough to all three. 3rd Kitten poops some times at litter box, some times in his bed itself.1st one getting stronger and active. No one else to play so she run here and there.2nd one is as usual eat, sleep,rest...
This is good to hear about kitten number one. Thank you for the update

No, not too much food, they need to eat a lot. My guess is that the stronger smell is because of the food change, not necessarily a bad thing if all else is ok.
Hi! Is the litter box still smelling strongly? You probably already thought of this, --I was thinking that if it is still stinky, maybe give them a little egg and rice.
How is number three's leg?
Is his skin looking any better? Is number two starting to play yet?

Time to time I have to change the litter box and it's small since the Cattitude people told put them in a clean place so I keep inside my house near balcony. Poops & urine everywhere. I'll try to give egg.
3rd ones leg is still same, his coat is rough, cracked and falling off slowly, sounds like mange. He's getting little better he needs to get rest but since I have all of them in one place 1st one is biting his cracked thin skin try to play with him so 3rd one is restless.
After place and food changed 2nd one don't hide in edges but eats a lot. Today 2nd one vomited dry food which she ate.
Looking to place third one in cage for to get rest properly.i Don't know.

A cage, for periods of time, for number three sounds like a good idea to give him a rest from number one.
Massages on that leg might take time to work, I'm not sure...?
Some egg for number two could possibly help her stomach issues. Also, you could put a bottle cap or something similarly sized, into the food dish/bowl to help slow her eating down in case that is part of her problem. Large enough that she won't swallow it, small enough to fit in the dish.
Sounds like number one is doing great
I don't know what to suggest to help for the poops and urine everywhere...do you have newspaper you could put down that you could then dispose? I don't know what you have available, other than a second litter pan?

I don't know how to get a cage or DIY for third one but it's worth to heal him soon if he wants food or water he will eat if it's there inside the cage since all three are in same box other two kittens clean the bowl whatever food is left. Placing him in cardboard box is not so ventilated.
Fourth day with proper food & clean water slight changes in third Kitten. Day by day 3rd one getting better but breathing is little rapid than others.
Can I use bleaching powder to clean the poop & urine with plenyy of water ?
3rd one like to get scratch his body From me so the coat skin falls off like flakes.

...a cardboard box with some cutout areas for air flow? Hmmm...or, I don't know how much room you have, but maybe have him in a corner with something across, diagonally, to block the other kittens access to him?
The more rapid breathing could be from the soreness in the leg, and/or because it's fighting off illness...i think continue doing as you are for him
A bit of bleaching powder with lots of water to rinse will work. Hard surfaces won't change color from the bleach.
The aloe vera didn't help them to feel any more comfortable? Does Cattitude have any thoughts about treatment for number three's
skin?

Oh, by the way, if you can, continue massaging that leg and also, very very gently, and just a slight bit at first, then a little more each day, straighten that leg.
I'm concerned that the muscles could become unusable to him without gradual exercise, and that he might not start using the leg unless you give him a little bit of feline physical therapy

Good for you, working with these little guys like this!!
I didn't know if you had a chance to see this post of mine from a little earlier so I thought I'd post it here again, knowing that you are a very busy person with these kittens, their issues and everything else that was going on in your life before they appeared...
