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.

spikeypickle - another oneYears back, I had a wee cavalier king charles puppy called Wendy. I had taken her for a walk to the beach where a couple of my friends were engaging in underage drinking. One of the friends was a large lady called Shirley. When I got there she was well on the way, in fact she was unable to walk properly.
Myself and the friend she was with decided it was best we get her home.
As she was of larger bones, we each put one of her arms across our shoulders and half carried, half dragged her towards her house. We had made it about 100 yards from her house (which was about 200 yards from my own house) when Wendy suddenly ran forward. As I had a large women on my shoulder I was unable catch the lead or to give chase. Next thing I heard were the screach of brakes and then a repeated high pitched arf arf arf arf arf arf noise.
Poor wendy, she arf'd all the way to the vets who immediately put her down. Broken spines are not so healable it turns out.
(PS:- Bad bad bad people who thought this would be a 'fat women sits on dog' story)

You disappoint me...I had read the end bit (not the PS) before the middle somehow so was completely convinced it was a fat girl sits of dog story.
Poor Wendy though. I'd have dropped the drunk, but then I wouldn't have been carrying her anyway...
