AND soon now the Doctor began to make money again; and his sister,
Sarah, bought a new dress and was happy. Some of the animals who
came to see him were so sick that they had to stay at the Doctor's
house for a week. And when they were getting better they used to sit in
chairs on the lawn.
And often even after they got well, they did not want to go away-they
liked the Doctor and his house so much. And he never had the heart to
refuse them when they asked if they could stay with him. So in this
way he went on getting more and more pets.
