Or in our case...it's my jewelry. I couldn't figure out why Jo would cower down when I tried to pet the top of his head and I felt bad...he's never been abused a day in his life that I'm aware of. Well, I patted him one day and heard a 'clunk' and I realized it was my wedding ring hitting his little bitty head! I felt so bad! So, now I'm careful when I pat his head and I try to pat his back first when I come over the top of him.
