While cats can have interrupted labor, it is concerning that Snickers has already had two dead kittens and it's been 12 hours since she had the last one. She may be having trouble giving birth, and may need veterinary help to give birth to the third. I would take her into a vet immediately for care. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
