Maryanne has been with Kitty City for several years and, unfortunately, she has never warmed up enough to allow us to pick her up and cuddle her. She has mellowed some with time. She comes very close to say hi, but then backs away. We can get in an occasional pet on her head, but that's about it. We continue to hope Maryanne mellows further as she approaches senior cat status. She is otherwise a happy kitty who gets along well with the other cats in her room.
