Kim, there is something about her expression especially in those first two pics that is so much like Scout. She has that look too. Scout is still a bit stand-offish about being touched. She sleeps with me at night (in my armpit) but she decides when she wants me to pet her. She was abused by some boys who were rough housing with her by zipping her up in their backpacks and tossing her around and who know what else. Luckily someone stepped in to save her and took her to the rescue group where I adopted her.

Anyway, back to my point. I kind of associate that look with a cat that has suffered some abuse in their past. I looked at Marmalade's pictures first before reading your post and figured she had probably been abused at some point.

Sorry to ramble on.

I think she is very pretty and I bet she will come around with time.
