	I love my little baby Brutus. He is a joy, but lately, I have been noticing some odd behaviors. I got Brutus when he was 6 weeks old. Recently, he has been exhibiting nervousness around loud noises, and flyswatters, in particular. My mom went to swat a fly, and he backed up, like he was going to get hit. Now, I have never hit him with anything, except a newspaper, and that was only once or twice. He also is very nervous around power outages (we had 2 today) and loud noises in general. Is this something I should be concerned about? What suggestions do you have for me? I am at a loss at how to proceed.
