Shamrock is evil tonight

Ok, its been about 3 timeouts for Shamrock tonight. I just don't get it
with him. He has these moods where he relentlessly attacks Shadow (and me!)
and tonight is one of those nights. It is like he is possessed and will
not ignore; leave him alone; go find something else to do. We played
earlier with toys, and I had him on my lap for a while and he snoozed, and
since then he's been horrible to Shadow, and also keeps attacking my ankles
when I try to walk across the room. I am starting to wonder if that is the
connection? When he gets lots of attention? It is just about time for me to
call it a night and based on his mood tonight I wonder if I should put him
downstairs for the night? (fully finished lower level; just like being
upstairs only I'm not down there). His allergy spots are doing well since
he had a steroid shot a couple weeks ago (and his regular checkup) so it
isn't like his skin itching is tormenting him..........sigh
