If I was one of the owner’s that had dropped my pet off to be cared for and found it had been stolen by animal control I would be livid. I would question whether the lady sheltering the animals even had the authority/permission to surrender the animals since their legal owners had not relinquished any claim on them. That being so I would argue that the animal control officer had no right to seize the animals. The only thing he should have done was contact owners to let them know to pick up their pet or make other arrangements. JMHO.

She did not have a license for doing a good deed in an emergency. What was she thinking?

This^

I guarantee that there is some law or regulation that prohibits this and it's nothing more than rent seeking by the petty bureaucrats of the county.
A bureaucrat that was doing nothing to pick up these pets.

Fire him!

The city manager should be chained to a tree in his backyard the next time his city floods.

She should prepare a bill and present it to the county. She should state that the county animal shelter and its manager were grossly negligent in performing their duties and a citizen was required to perform their duties. The county should evaluate their animal shelter manager and fire him if necessary.

“We had an elderly couple, they were evacuating that afternoon, and there was no way they could take 18 animals with them.”

There is another problem here besides authoritarian bureaucrats.

I don’t see any quotes where the govt officials threatened her with charges.

I see that a newspaper speculated; and workers hoped she wouldn’t be charged.

Imaginations running wild, or just poor reporting?

Thanks. So two counts of bad reporting: Didn’t report relevant quotes, and left out the part about her administering medication to the animals.
