My boy Ni is now in a new animal hospital near home. He is doing well. The new vet is young and very caring for the animals, but I was a bit uncomfortable because he tended to pat my shoulders and back when he gave me a tour of the new facilities, when he showed me the results of Ni's blood test, when he handed over his calling card, when he said goodbye. I guess he was the type of person whose friendly gestures are more on the physical side. I am not used to all this touching thing, especially if I meet a person for the first time.
Anyway, it is also possible that I looked stressed seeing my Ni sick and Dr. D. was just trying to calm me down. My question to you is - what is acceptable as "friendly" touching from a stranger?
