Answer 1

$\huge \color{red} \rm{Answer}$

All the animals other than the dragon used to boast about their bravery and made the fun of the dragon. But when the pirate entered the house, all got scared and ran away and disappeared except Custard, the dragon. Each of Belinda’s pets ran away and hid. They were scared at the sight of the pirate.

Answer 2

Answer:

Belinda and her pets showed a temporary appreciation of Custard's heroic feat. Belinda embraced him and other pets danced around him. But that was the end of it. They again started indulging in self-patting and self-praise. They showed their ungratefulness by undermining and not acknowledging Custard's heroic fight with the pirate.
