Macomb County Animal Shelter euthanizes more than 40 pets hoarded in motel room

None of the 46 animals rescued from a Warren motel room where a woman was living were deemed adoptable, according to the Macomb County Animal Shelter.

that 44 cats and two dogs were euthanized just days after being discovered in the room with a 45-year-old woman who had been evicted from her home.

, the woman had been living there several days and was paid up. But when a concerned friend offered to take her in, he had no idea she was hoarding that many animals.

After the shelter removed the animals -- covered in feces and urine -- they were examined before the decision was made to put them down.

The woman was taken to a hospital for a psychiatric examination, but it is unknown if she will face any charges.
