It Was a Good Morning Until

That old cat shaped hole in the wall 
Allows my arch rival to call
He grabs a steam iron as he nears
My feet now stick out of my ears

How much can a little mouse sweat
How hot can a mouse safely get
It was a good morning until
He tied me up under the grill

However, it seems he forgot
That cartoon cats can’t tie a knot
He checks for his crispy delight
In the grill, nearly done... dynamite!
