Tango's two little ones are surviving nicely. Spoke with the vet who believes it was a combination of her age and late birthing. We have one male and one female survivor. The male will be going to Deer Creek Rattery and the female will be staying here.
I've also paired up Webber (ShMR Cobweb) with Sonny (SFR Songeur) for a second litter. They were happily cuddling in a matter of minutes because Sonny is in heat. I'll check her tomorrow for a plug. Expecting a February birth.
Quarantine for the NIRO show will begin as soon as Sonny's litter is weaned. We will be there with at least 4 kiddos. Hopefully we'll be getting a full table. Hope to see you all in Chicago in early May. :)

Tango's babies are here! She had ten beautiful babies, but unfortunately one was stillborn and she accidentally smothered a second. The rest of the babies are doing just fine and she is being an excellent mother. Watch their litter page for updates. Their waiting list is very long, but if you're still interested, drop an e-mail for an adoption application.
Second update (later): Sad news, we have lost all but two babies in Tango's litter. They will not be available for adoption. :(
