Question 5

Why does the author say, “Toto was not the sort of pet we could keep for long”?

Answer

Though Toto was pretty and clever, very mischievous and damaged the house by breaking the dishes, tearing all the clothes and curtains. He also scared away the visitors in the house by tearing their dresses. Furthermore, he didn’t get good along with the other animals in the house too. One day he crossed the line by picking up a dish of pulao and then climb up on a branch to eat it. When scolded, he threw off the pulao plate and broke it. That’s when grandfather decided that Toto was not the sort of pet to keep for long time and he had enough of the losses.
