About 3 feet. That is the perfect height from the floor that one should keep one's head and neck in order to ensure it is at the optimal hugging height for one's People. 3 feet works perfectly for the smaller portion of My People. However, I often show my consideration for the older portion of My People by using the well-placed hugging assistance platform (My People have a funny name for this thing....they call it stairs...I never will fully understand My People) to raise my head and neck to a height that allows them to hug me without having to bend very much. They seem to be so very creaky these days and because of that I do my best to help them preserve their bending capabilities for truly critical activities like filling my food and water bowl, fluffing the bed pillows before I lay down on the newly made bed (while they are away) and standing up to let me outside when I feel the need to patrol the back yard.
Yes, a good hugging posture is important. It lets those about whom one cares so much express their affection for one as often as possible and induces minimal pain for the hugger(s).
One more thing. If one takes up a hugging posture on a carpeted area then one can easily (and politely), in a demonstration of good manners, wipe one's drool off on the carpet prior to the arrival of the hugger and thereby refrain from "sliming" the hugger's shirt or blouse. Remember, good manners are important.
