Detailed explanation-1: -Tricki was a newcomer in the house. Moreover, Tricki was very lethargic to play with them He was not comfortable there. But after a few days, Tricki started enjoying them. He discovered the joys of being bowled over, tramped on and squashed every few minutes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tricki never refused food anytime. He was always greedy for food. He liked cream cakes and biscuits very much. Mrs Pumphrey gave him cod-liver oil and Horlicks.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ans: Tricki became fat, like a bloated sausage. Since he had no energy, Mrs. Pumphrey thought he suffered from malnutrition and over-fed him. He couldn’t refuse food and that led to his present overweight state. He spent most of his time resting in his expensive tweed coats and did no exercise.
Detailed explanation-4: -The only way was to get Tricki out of the house for a period. I suggested that he be hospitalised for about a fortnight to be kept under observation. The poor lady almost swooned. She was sure he would pine and die if he did not see her every day.
