Accidental animal crueltyI 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.

Too many stories...... regarding the worlds stupidest cats (my ex-girlfriends). My favourite though involves cat-flaps.
The cats had trouble using the cat-flap. It was one where they had to wear little magnets on their collars to complete a circuit to unlock it (to stop strays getting into the house). But they never really caught on that it opened when they put their heads near it and would desparately try to use their paws, much to my amusement (which used to get me the evil eye from the ex).
One day, I heard a bang from the back door, followed by some very odd meowing. Went to the door, only to find one of the cats with both her front paws jammed under the catflap - she'd somehow got her paws through, but it was still locked - and one of the neighbours tomcats raping her. Our cat didn't seem too happy, had pissed and shat everywhere and seemed in genuine pain. I however, stood and laughed at her (cruel I know, but a-she was once outwitted then bitten on the nose by a mouse and b-its not like I was raping her). She'd obviously been fighting with the other cat, started to lose and run for the safety of home. Where the inability to use the cat-flap became an issue.
Oh, and the other one used to sleep under cars and not wake up when they drove off. The vet used to call them "de-gloving" injuries...
