'PostgreSQL 9.3.5 DBMS for Windows' is available from the Additional Products section of the ArcGIS for Desktop 10.3 Download on My Esri

The client libs are included in ArcGIS Desktop and Server 10.3.

You do not need to do anything but provide the correct connection information.

Connection to PostgreSQL from ArcGIS:

PostgreSQL client files are included with ArcGIS for Desktop. You need to configure the database to accept connections, and create a database connection from the Catalog tree to connect to PostgreSQL from ArcGIS for Desktop

ArcGIS for Server includes PostgreSQL client files; therefore, you do not need to download and copy PostgreSQL client files to connect.

Hope this clears up any confusion!

You can connect directly from ArcCatalog to PostgreSQL database from ArcGIS 10.3 as the client libraries are installed by default: https://community.esri.com/thread/118393
