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.

As an anal retentive legal
type, I feel it is only my duty to point out that as cats are not recognised as domesticated in law, they cannot be property, and, it follows, cannot be stolen.
Similarly, you don't have to report flatting Tiddles with your car, but if you should hasten the end of Rover with your Rover (geddit?), it's an offence to not report it.
Sorry.
