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.

This is a comedy sketch (not too sure what program it was, but bloody funny)......so I won't take the credit on this, but it did list a great example of accidental cruelty.
A vet gets called to a farm, as his sheepdog is getting on a bit and it's for the best if he is put to sleep. So the vet grabs his stuff and calls around to the tearful farmer, who sits him in the front room with a lovely tired-looking dog on the sofa. The farmer mutters "I'll be back in two minutes..." and tearfully walks out of the room closing the door behind him. The vet sees the dog, pats the poor fellow then opens his case. He numbs the dog's leg, injects the lethal dosage and pats the dog saying "There there, you've led a good life ol' boy, no more pain where you're going old chum." The dog quietly falls asleep on the vet's lap and slowly passes away.
A few moments pass, then the farmer returns with another dog. "Here's poor ol' Jess doc, she's in so much pain. Oh, nice to see you're aquainted with Maxie there doc, how's he been with you?"
Oops.

Twin Townwas pretty much a documentary of Swansea. I did my degree there; I used to have deep joyful dreams of the Kingsway being napalmed, Apocalypse Now style, on a Saturday night, which always left me waking up with a grin.
" Yes Tubbs, you did it beautifully ".
