What types of questions would you ask for someone adopting your pet?

I am moving and have to find new homes for my two cats. Please don’t write me about me keeping them and/or being a bad pet owner because I absolutely can not keep them and yes I hate it.
Anyway, I put an ad out on this Vegas website asking for people to please adopt one of the cats. I am offering a cat carrier and $30 Petco gift card with each cat adoption. The only thing is I want to make sure they are going to good homes without ulterior motives.
What questions would you ask people to ensure this?
Thanks!
