I wouldn't think they could take them away from you; rather, that they give you ample time to place them in other homes. But if it was me, and I hope I don't offend anyone by saying this, if they told me I had to get rid of some of my animals, I would say ok, and take them to my moms until they came back to check, and then like a teenager, I would bring them right back home. I've always been a little rebellious like that.
