No, it's not okay. You'll notice I didn't pick him up without permission.

I also feel a little awkward when that happens and often don't say anything, but I think you can just say, "oh, he's shy about being picked up", or "he gets a little snappy if he gets picked up."

Now, I'm the treat queen, so I just tell kids they can give Thor a treat.
