kittens (++ but bittersweet)
The kids are demolishing their graduation dinner: one piece of grilled tuna and one of grilled salmon. (A whole filet of each would have been far too much, so Auntie Rez lovingly assisted them. 🐯❤️) They have no clue they're about to leave home and Mama for good.
Well, "for good" except that their new home is 300 feet away and if they get lonely we can easily arrange for a visit... ^______^

@zx3 I mean, this is BY FAR the optimal result we're getting. Going off to a total stranger's house via an adoption charity would have been like sending them to another dimension. This is more like sending them to the local Y for Kitten Space Camp*. :)
*i.e., a space camp for kittens, not a camp for the exploration of kittenspace, although now that I think of it, it is probably also that

They go off to a brave new world of new sights, smells, and things to knock over and crawl into!

(Oh, by "leave for good" I mean tomorrow afternoon, assuming their new parent is going to be around! The hand-off is not tonight. I get to say a more extended goodbye tomorrow.)
