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.

Another road kill storyWas driving down a country lane when a pheasant suddenly hopped out into the road infront of me. With oncoming traffic there was no way of swerving. I did what i could to avoid it, I looked in the rear view mirror and no sign of a squished bird anywhere. Ahh thank goodness for that! It must have hopped back off the road just in time.
2 hours and a hundred miles later. I stopped for some fuel. Im stood there minding my own business filling up the car, and i start noticing people giving me dodgy looks and looking at the car.
Round to the front of the car I go, to witness a huge wing hanging out from the front grill. Ooops! Got the gloves on, pulled out the humongous bird which had been cooking nicely on the radiator and threw it a side.
Never found its head though.
