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.

Cats + Laser pens = hilarityCats love laser pens. The little buggers will chase that little red dot for hours.
They will follow it everywhere...and I do mean everywhere.
We have floor length windows in our front room. Me being me, I would draw the curtains, and have little beast 1 and 2 chase the laser dot for a bit, before aiming it at the window.
I thought that they would have the spatial awareness to realise that the wide open spaces end at the curtains, but no, they would run headfirst into the window. Again. And again. And again.

kittensI've recently found that my kittens are rather keen on the laser pen, but they haven't been hurt from it
The funniest thing is when I put the dot on the wall then stop, they'll hang around staring at the wall waiting for the dot to re-apear for about 20 minutes...
