Answer 2

When Maxwell’s dog named Johnny died, he was very unhappy and he did not want to get another dog as a pet.

So it was his decision to keep an otter as a pet and not a dog.

An otter would provide him a relief and also a variety when it comes in terms of keeping a pet.

He said his wish to one of his closest friends who managed to procure an otter and then sent it to Maxwell with the help of two Arabian men.

This is how Maxwell managed to get an otter.
