They'll need to see the vet or they'll die. If you really can't afford it, you should take them to the animal shelter, and they can either cure them or humanely put them to sleep. But you can't let them suffer, you need to do something.

As I recently found out, calling the vet and explaining your financial situation before investing the gas and effort can really pay off. Call around to vets in your area explain that you can't pay them right now, but you'd like to work out a payment arrangement, because your cats are sick. by and large they remember that they became vets to help animals first and because it is a lucrative field second or third.

You can't let them suffer without trying everything in your power to make them well. This is in your power to make a few phone calls. If you can't find anyone who says bring them in, we'll work something out, then yes an animal shelter is your next option.

This may help but is in no way meant to be substituted for actual veterinary care, just for you to check symptoms so you may have an inkling of what you are dealing with:

This actually sounds like something that happened to my grandmother's cats. Once when they were kittens, they did something to their paws (I can't remember what). I was only there one day when most of them were over it. Grandma said that they would just cry and cry at her, and she would massage their paws. When we visited, one of them would walk funny, or not at all, and when it wasn't walking it would sit with it's front paws up by it's belly.

But this could be something more series, so you should look into it.
