Yes, he liked it very much. The sentence from the text, ‘It is, in effect, a thraldom to otters, an otter fixation, that I have since found to be shared by most other people, who have ever owned one’ throws light on the strong feeling of happiness that he had.

When the writer’s mail arrived, he took to his bedroom to read. He saw two Arabs squatting on the floor with a sack that squirmed from time to time. They handed him a note which was from his friend which mentioned that he had sent him an otter.

Yes, Maxwell liked it. We know this from his words “An otter fixation” used to describe his feelings towards the otter. He felt the term was used to express his strong attachment towards otters like any other otter owner would feel.
