Sebastian in front, and Viola in back, were born at Carleton on Dec 25th, 1998, and they were our only babies so far. Unfortunately, Sebastian died Oct 10, 2002, of a pre-existing health condition (an ulcer), and Viola followed him in February, 2003, with severe bouts of pancreatits. Pictured here, they are 3.5 years old, and well beyond adult status (occurs at 21 months, generally). They have been well cared for by their entire family, and it shows. Sebastian enjoyed scaring off intruders with a quick run and a lot of piloerection. Viola approaches with caution.
