This is a question Accidental animal cruelty

I once invented a brilliant game - I'd sit at the top of the stairs and throw cat biscuits to the bottom. My cat would eat them, then I'd shake the box, and he would run up the stairs for more biscuits. Then - of course - I'd throw a biscuit back down to the bottom. I kept this going for about half an hour, amused at my little game, and all was fine until the cat vomited. I felt absolutely dreadful.

Have you accidentally been cruel to an animal?
This question has been revived from way, way, way back on the b3ta messageboard when it was all fields round here.

Suzie the Sausage Dog
When I was a kid my cousin had a dachshund named Suzie. She was getting pretty old, was almost blind, had no teeth, and no fur to speak of; just leathery black skin.

Unbeknownst to us kids, my uncle decided to put her down. This being rural Australia, that basically meant that he and a couple of his mates took the dog out into the bush and shot her. Later on the news was broken to us that Suzie had been very sick and so they'd put her out of her misery and now she was in doggy heaven.

Fast forward to about a year later... out of the bush wanders a strange yet familiar leathery-skinned creature. It's Suzie, still alive but missing part of her lower lip and jaw (blown away by the shot gun!). My uncle's attempts at putting her "out of her misery" had been so ineffectual that she'd not only survived the shooting, but had been living in the bush for over a year.

It was pretty freaky for us kids having this pet come back from the dead; (a kind of Stephen King "Pet Sematary" moment). My cousin was so happy and Suzie was so excited to see him again. My aunty then loaded Suzie into the car and took her to the vet to be put down.

She didn't, did she? Why? God, if Suzie made it that far, let her live. That is cruel.
