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.

anvil accidentMy uncle George is a blacksmith. A few years ago I was watching him make horseshoes and he offered me the chance to have a go. So I put on the gloves and the apron (to stop sparks) and grabbed hold of the hammer and tongs.
I was happily but inexpertly banging away at the soft, red-hot metal when his cat Moggs became frisky at the sight of my twitching apron strings. With an athletic leap, the cat suddenly appeared between the descending hammer and the shiny metal surface of the anvil. There was a liquid crunch, a strangled meow and his brains were dashed all over the place, hissing and sizzling on the hot metal while the lifeless furry body fell to the sawdust.
"I've warned him about that before," said Uncle George, apparently missing the point that cats can't understand health and safety instructions.

damnI bet that was a rather unpleasant experience. Did it smell like fried chicken?
