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 killed george, the family tortoise
well, i think i did. encountered it one day on the garden path during my five year old wanderings and wondered "what happens if you tip these things upside down?". so i tried, it rolled off down the slope and into some bushes and i wandered off, bored now.
it was never seen again. i admitted my part in its disappearance a few days later, suggesting it may have 'run off'. as tortoises do
