My cat gave birth to some kittens a couple of months ago and they grew to love me as much as I grew up to love them.
As I currently don't have a home of my own and live with my parents, I have to gift them to other persons.
How do I identify good owners? Where can I find good owners? And more important, how do I cope with the feeling of not seeing them again? I'm gonna miss them a lot, and is gonna hurt very bad to see them go away.

You should have neutered your cat. Your an irresponsible animal owner.

Pretty much this.
You aren't going to be satisfied with the homes that you find but you've gotta give them away anyways. I hope none of those animals suffer due to your irresponsibility.

Thanks for the advice, I guess.
Though I said that it was mine, it was my sister's and now the whole family is paying for her irresponsability.
Kittens stayed with me because the cat chose my room as her refuge and she raised them here.
/an/ might be interested in helping you also. Be ready for them to tell you to spay your cat and possibly chastise you a little for not having done so before now.
Anyway, if you're going to put an ad out saying you're rehoming kittens, it may be a good idea to mention a "rehoming fee" instead of advertising them as free. This weeds out potentially less responsible people that may decide to get a kitten on impulse because they're free and then later cheap out on the cat's necessary care like vet visits and food costs. If they can't drop the cost of a modest rehoming fee to get the cat in the first place they're less likely to prioritize the cost of vaccines or regular checkups or emergency vet visits or a decent diet. You don't want to see them show up here in like a month saying "oh no my cat is having a seizure. what do? can't afford/ won't pay for vet btw"

Great idea. They aren't ugly, so I suppose that we can charge for them. How much would you recommend?
These are two of them. They all have greenish blue eyes.

Well, start with the vet costs of any treatment they've already received before they're picked up, and then maybe consider tacking on a little extra.
I think their eye color may change as they get older, I hear that happens with cats.
