Wythall Animal Sanctuary
📍 King's Norton, West Midlands
Registered charity operating for over 50 years, rescuing and rehoming dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Also offers dog boarding. Visits are primarily for prospective adopters rather than casual family days out.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families genuinely considering adopting a pet — the sanctuary staff are knowledgeable about each animal and can match families with the right companion. Families expecting a zoo-style outing will find this is a working rescue facility, not a visitor attraction.

“A lovely place with lovely people 😁 The staff were very warm and kind, and it was a pleasure donating pet food to them. The Wythall Animal Sanctuary do incredible work rescuing animals and helping to get them re-homed and find a 'forever home' with new, loving owners. They do fundraising events to support the animals they rescue and regularly post about the animals in need of a new home, and provide information on how to look after animals. The Wythall Animal Sanctuary gives pets that have been abandoned, abused and neglected by previous owners, a second chance, and give them all the love and care they need. A really wonderful little place that does incredible work helping animals ♥️”

“It looks to be a very nice Wythall Rescue Sanctuary. I have not had a chance to travel to visit there at all yet. I might keep it on my notes, if i want to adopt another lovely pet, Guinea pig, Rabbit, Cat or Dog. I have had a rabbit, guinea pigs, rat and gerbils and cockertiels before. I had 2 cats, i have since lost my Tabby, Abbey, 13 yrs, was getting old and unwell. I have Gracie my 1 yr 4 month, BSH, grey girl cat. She is not keen on dogs. But that is alright, she is enjoying her lovely home with me. xx”
