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

    This is because Toto frequently tore clothes, smashed dishes, stole food, made holes in curtains and wallpaper, and acted rudely with guests. The author’s family did not have the means to replace the items that Toto destroyed.

    Explanation

    Though Toto was pretty and clever, he was also incredibly mischievous. From the moment he arrived, the household knew they had their hands full. He caused a lot of damage around the house, breaking dishes, tearing clothes, and ripping apart curtains. His antics didn’t stop there; he even took to scaring visitors by tearing holes in their dresses, leaving them shocked and distressed.

    To make matters worse, Toto didn’t get along well with the other animals in the house either. He would constantly provoke the family dog, swipe at the cat, and even managed to annoy the usually unflappable parrot. It seemed that no one was safe from Toto’s relentless mischief.

    One day, Toto crossed the line in a way that made it impossible to ignore his behavior any longer. He spotted a dish of pulao, still warm and inviting from the kitchen. In a flash, he grabbed it and scampered up a tree branch, planning to enjoy his stolen feast. When Grandfather saw this and scolded him, Toto, in a fit of defiance, threw the plate to the ground, shattering it into pieces.

    That was the last straw for Grandfather. He realized he had had enough of Toto. The constant chaos, the broken items, and the distress caused to everyone in the house were too much to bear. The financial losses were significant, but the emotional toll was even greater. With a heavy heart, Grandfather decided it was time to find a new home for Toto, somewhere he could be as mischievous as he liked without causing so much trouble.
