Mouse hunt

A few years ago we had a mouse plague
Those little rotters were everywhere!
They were climbing up my curtains
They were climbing up the back 
Of my lounge chair
They were eating at my wheat bags
As I sat in my chair trying to relax!
Archie was a good mouser!
He was very, very quick
He'd be in like Flynn
All over the house!
One night I watched as he jumped up
Onto the counter top
He could smell that tasty mouse
Nothing would make him stop
When he was on the hunt!
I watched amazed as Archie
Looked into that toaster
Trying to figure out how it worked!
He pushed the lever up and down
I heard that squeak it made
As Archie stalked that little mouse
Then all of a sudden: as he let go
Up popped that little mouse
Into Archie's mouth!
Magnificent Archie got his prey!
In a very unusual way!
