Sean came home from school with a little terror of a kitten.   She proved to be a handful for the four marines who owned her.  A lean mean fightin machine complete with dog tags.  Closer tag inspection revealed she was a USMC (United States Marine Cat). 

Nancy fell in love and Chesty (Named after Chesty Puller, the famous marine) became "Precious".  I refer to her as Einstein.  It just seems I am not ready to call anything "Precious"

Well, she has become an important part of the family.  Actually she has no idea that she is a cat,  she thinks she is a child of Nancy and me.  In more lucid moments she thinks she is a dog.
