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.

I thought I'd suppressed this one but oh god oh god
Mr happylittletulip likes to re-enact the horrors of a medieval witch-hunt by rounding up all the snails in the garden and then bowling handfuls of them overarm into the hot cruel flames of the chimenea, like some sort of evil cricketing snail-witch-burning... person.
Or at least, he used to, until I threatened all sorts of things like no treats for a year unless he stopped. So now he just throws them over the fence into Next Door.
