I know the feeling. We took in a mama cat that had a litter of 4 kittens a few months ago, and there are few joys in life as pure as having a bunch of kitties scampering around, jumping onto your lap, and staring at you with their big bright eyes.
But we also knew that they would grow up eventually and it would've been rough taking care of 5 cats and a large dog in our little house. They're so sweet and adorable already, but watching them grow up and learn really tugs at your heartstrings. It was tough to part with the 2 of them we did, but we made sure that they were going to good houses where they'd be taken care of.
Though like you said, it's tough to leave a kitty alone, so that's why we decided to keep the 2 that got along with each other the best. Lucky for us, the 2 we gave away were pretty independent and liked playing on their own. I'd like to think they're doing fine in their new homes
