Lost Fantasy Rescue
📍 Ceres, VA
We work with the rescue, adoption & sanctuary of companion animals, equines and some exotics. We also provide spay/neuter assistance as well as transport for other rescue groups. We pull from our local kill shelters as well as accepting owner surrendered animals. We are a no kill group who works hard to keep animals out of our kill shelter by intercepting them prior to them being sent. All our animals will stay with us until homes or other rescues can be found for them. We do NOT euthanize for space but for that reason we have a limited number of animals that we can take at any time.
