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.

We had a cat that lost its tail......
in an accident. Cat lovers will know that this seriously effects a cat balance. They will also know that Cats use their whiskers to measure the width of gaps they can squeeze through. My sister cut off all of skippies whiskers which kinda fucked the poor things up but that was nothing compared to what I did as a six year old fool. I was always making parachutes out of bags and throwing my transformers out of the window losing many. One day Using a tescos carrier and string we tied skippie to the makeshift parachute and threw her out of the upstairs window. She gently floated to earth and was fine. OK not quite she plummeted like a stone as she was way to heavy for our parachute, she hit the floor with an audiable thud. She survived but had a limp. My sister made a splint out of a lolly stick and did her best to hide skippie from our parents. after a couple of days the splint fell off and she appeared to be fine. Skippie lived another 12 years.
It was never mentioned again
Until Now
