APPA Encourages Proactiveness for National Pet Preparedness Month

In observance of National Pet Preparedness Month, the American Pet Products Association (APPA) is pleased to share tips and products from its members to help pet owners be ready and keep their pets safe in the event of an emergency. According to a study from Fritz Institute, 44 percent of non-evacuees during Hurricane Katrina did not want to evcacuate due solely to their pets. Whether it be hurricanes, forest fires, mud slides, or another natural disaster, APPA encourages pet owners to be thinking about what quick evacuation with their pets might look like. Because pets are part of our family, preparedness is key. Take a look at some of the recommendations below:

Identification

An identification tag is an obvious way to help ensure lost pets find their way, but The Pawsitively Safe Pet Tag by Platinum Pets takes it one step further. This unique tag assigns a pet an exclusive code listed on their tag and if a pet is lost it will send the owner an alert via text or email if the pet is found. Because owners are not at their usual homes and may not have regular phone service during an evacuation, the digital component of these pet tags also allows for up-to-the-minute emergency contact updates. Owners can also automatically generate a Lost Pet Poster to share with friends and neighbors via social media.
Price: $12.99

Transportation

Having a kennel easily accessible and ready to go can be lifesaving in the event of an evacuation. Gunner Kennels dog crates are among the safest, most durable pet kennels available. The G1™ dog crate received the Center For Pet Safety Five Star Crash Test Rating, and helps ensure that a quick getaway can be a safe one. In addition to protecting pets from seasonal elements, it also guards against outside force in the case of an accident.
Price: $349.99 – $599.99

Food

Be prepared with healthy food that won't spoil quickly. Raw Naturals Freeze-Dried Food by Stewart Pet makes it easy to provide full quality meals with their convenient food pouches prepared with raw, single or limited-source protein, along with real fruits and vegetables. Each heart-shaped nugget is packed with optimum levels of nutrients to help dogs maintain their weight and fitness with a complete and balanced diet.
Price: $39.99

Utilizing the pet lover network

A helpful resource for pet owners in the event of a disaster comes from the Kurgo Foundation, formed to support non-profits assisting animals in the wake of a disaster. Through their extensive network of animal lovers, they coordinate donations and provide much needed public information on how to help, ensuring resources get to the right organizations as quickly as possible.

Stone Bond Unveils Next Generation of Enterprise Enabler® 10 With a Sneak Peak of the Product for a Limited Time

Stone Bond Technologies, a leading provider of business integration solutions announced today the release of their new product update Enterprise Enabler (EE) 10. Enterprise Enabler is a one of a kind Data Virtualization and Agile ETL™ platform that unifies information silos and scattered data from multiple sources. EE 10, takes it even farther with the concept of data continuum throughout the enterprise. Today, nearly all integration tools are designed primarily to be used only by the IT department, meaning business users still have to rely on the technical resource or DBA to get the data required which makes it hard for business users to make more informed decisions for better outcomes. However, this update was created to support not only technically savvy users but also day-to-day business users so everyone can have access to the data when they need it in real-time or on-demand.

"With the rapid increase of Data Management disciplines, we are fortunate to have an agile integration platform that easily absorbs, incorporates new integration patterns, and adapts to new challenges. Our new release extends its breadth and depth with automation to accommodate the novice users and sophisticated Data Scientists. We have expanded the dimensions of security, including assistance with GDPR, and enhanced the handling of huge datasets. At this point, we feel that EE V.10 has easily leap-frogged all competitors in the Data Integration space." – Pamela Szabó, CTO at Stone Bond Technologies

@SterlingRope Kicks Off International Treasure Hunt on Instagram to Celebrate its 25th Anniversary

Sterling, a leading manufacturer of rope and life-safety equipment, today announced an international treasure hunt and Instagram contest for rock climbers and enthusiasts to celebrate its 25th anniversary. From June to November, Sterling will be partnering with Access Fund (@AccessFund) and the American Alpine Club (@AmericanAlpine) to place wooden #Sterling25 markers at 25 different crags across the US and Canada -- anywhere from the trailhead to the top of a climb -- and clues will be posted by @SterlingRope each week to help hunters find them.

How to Win
Beginning today, every Friday until November 16th @SterlingRope will post a photo and factual clue from its Instagram page. The first person to discover the #Sterling25 marker and post a photo with it tagging #Sterling25, @SterlingRope, @AccessFund, @AmericanAlpine will win a new Sterling rope. The next 25 people to post with the same marker will receive additional Sterling swag. Each day the marker goes unfound, another clue will be released to help treasure hunters win.

There will be 25 different markers in locations ranging from Alaska to Alberta, Washington to West Virginia, and Michigan to Maine, giving hunters around the country 650 chances to win.

"Over the last 25 years, Sterling has grown from a small New England company focusing on climbing rope to an international company serving multiple industries," said Liz McLellan, Director of Marketing at Sterling. "Our 25th Anniversary Treasure Hunt celebrates this milestone with the passionate community of climbers that originally inspired us. It's really our way of saying 'thank you.'"

First Clue
Each clue will include a factual clue along with a photo.

Factual Clue: Our first location is truly a needle in a haystack. Located in the largest, and most sparsely populated US State, where the rock is chossy, but the views are hard to beat!

Photo Clue: To see the photo of the crag and get all the daily clues follow @SterlingRope on Instagram.

Contest Partners
Sterling has partnered with Access Fund and the American Alpine Club to identify and safely place markers in all 25 crag locations.

"We're delighted to be working with long-time partner Sterling to host an adventure that highlights many of the incredible climbing areas we have helped to protect through our private land acquisition program," said Anneliese Steel, Corporate Partnerships Manager at Access Fund. "Access Fund is the only certified land trust that works for climbers. That means when an important climbing resource goes up for sale we can help local communities protect these at-risk properties. At the heart of it, we're climbers buying climbing areas and we look forward to showcasing these crags with the help of Sterling's 25th Anniversary Treasure Hunt."
