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.

hmmmi am in a foul enough mood today (fucking clients) to suggest that some people need to learn the meaning of the word "accidental". apologies for preaching.
i once fed a chocolate caramel to my friend's miniature dachshund. i had no idea dogs shouldn't eat chocolate; i was only about 9. the poor little thing's jaws got completely stuck together. its eyes bulged and its head twisted and its ears flapped. so did mine. i was beginning to panic when it gasped, wrenched its teeth apart, and howled.
i would have gotten away with it if the little shit hadn't dribbled caramel coloured chocolatey saliva all over the back seat of my friend's father's brand new RR...

I think it's becauseyou're hung over from celebrating the bedshitter's nuptuals.
Dachshunds are evil little things anyway, as most pedigreed dogs are. (It's all the inbreeding- they're all little Ann Coulters.)
And they should definitely not, under any circumstances, be allowed into a Rolls Royce.

I think I'd have to agree on the first part...A lot of these stories seem to be cases of neglect rather than 'accidental cruelty'...

Ah, but...being in the legal profession, surely you would be able to argue that 'accidental' does, in fact, mean 'deliberate', or at the very least, pre-meditated?

AgreedI hate Dachshunds.
When I was a wee nipper, the lady at the end of the road (who happened to be a nurse) owned four of the fuckers, who used to terrorize me. She'd let them run virtually feral to do what the hell they pleased, which usually involved chasing mini-me.
Said nurse was also responsible for administering what felt like a six inch masonry nail to my left buttock when I was in hospital for an op aged five. Strangers were one thing, but family friends with a penchant for sadism is something else entirely.
However, one fateful morning while they were lying in wait for me, our Boxer escaped and went straight for the pack leader. I was faced with the hilarious sight of one angry Boxer holding said Dachshund down with her paw and snarling at it while I continued on my merry way to school.
They never bothered me after that.
