That's really hard in a way and then in a way not. I've always harbored doubts about whether or not I should keep my kitties because they trigger my asthma and I "technically" have dogs. Am I shirking my responsibility to my dogs by simply dumping them on my parents? They actually offered to care for my dogs for the duration of my schooling, but don't you think that after all that time, the dogs will "belong" to my parents? I've got a couple of years at least on my bachelor's and I hope to get a master's too.
I never intended to keep them at all, I just didn't want them taken away by animal control. But hell, you know how kitties grow on ya. :-) This morning I picked up Peep and I was like, what's that wet stuff on your tail? Poop, that's what it was. Bathtime for Peep. As much as she hates baths, she didn't try to scratch me. After a little time to herself, she came up to me nicely enough and sat on my lap while I brushed her dry. Now she's so shiny, she gleams.
Back to the question, I would trade my cats for this:
Secure knowledge that the recipient(s) would love and cherish the cats like their own children, would take the utmost care of them and feed them the best quality food available, preferably the raw diet. It's mandatory that they never have the cats declawed, and it would be really nice if all three could go to the same home.
