Question

What made Grandfather decide to transfer Timothy to the zoo?

Answer 1

When Timothy was about six months old, he grew less friendly. When he was out for a walk with the narrator, he would try to steal away to stalk a cat or someone’s pet dog.

Sometimes at night, they would hear frenzied cackling from the poultry house. In the morning, they would find feathers lying all over the verandah. Timothy had to be chained up more often. And finally, when it began to stalk Mahmoud about the house with a villainous intent, Grandfather decided it was time to transfer it to a zoo.
