What is BAPS (bapsociety.com)?

BAPS is the Brooks Animal Protection Society, a not-for-profit charitable animal protection organization serving Brooks, the County of Newell, and surrounding communities since 1995. Its website, bapsociety.com, is the public hub for adopting animals, volunteering, donating, and licensing pets online in Brooks, Alberta.

What BAPS does

The organization describes itself as a charitable animal protection society with a rescue-focused mission. Its homepage leads with the message "Rescue your next best friend!" and organizes its work around a few core activities:

• Adoption — Viewing animals available for adoption.
• Getting involved — Volunteering, participating, or donating.
• Online pet licensing — Licensing pets through the City of Brooks online system.
• Donations — Supporting the organization financially if you can't adopt.

Services and how to use them

Adopting an animal

The site has a Featured Animals section and an "Adopt" entry point where you can view animals currently available for adoption. If you're considering adoption, start there to see which animals are listed, then follow the site's process for inquiring or applying.

Online pet licensing (Brooks, AB)

BAPS hosts Brooks, AB Online Pet Licensing, letting residents "license your pet today." This is a municipal licensing function delivered through the site, separate from adoption. If you live in Brooks and need to license a pet, this is the relevant section.

Volunteering and donating

Under Get Involved, the site lists ways to volunteer, participate, or donate. A Donate link routes to a Square checkout page, so financial contributions are processed through Square. If adoption isn't an option for you, the "Can't Adopt? Donate!" prompt points to the same donation path.

Events

The site has an Upcoming Events section, though at the time of the source page it showed "No events at the moment." Check back periodically if you're looking for community or fundraising events.

Who it's for

BAPS is relevant if you live in or near Brooks, Alberta, or the County of Newell and are looking to adopt, volunteer, donate, or handle pet licensing. Because it's a charitable non-profit, its services center on animal rescue and community support rather than commercial pet sales.
