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.

Just like osok
Although it was the A68 at one of its hillier sections. Travelling up and over one of the 'if you go over 30 you will take off' hills a bunch of crows took off from the road in front of me. Unfortunately for them, so did I and collected one in the radiator.
The wind held it there and for a while I could see a wing tip and two feet over the front of my bonnet, until I came to a village and had to slow. Ah well - poor bird.
Travelling through said village various locals turned to gawk, so after a bit I stopped, assuming some major damage at the front of the car.
No damage to the car, unless you count the cooked brains of a crow splattered across my radiator. The crow was still there though, and took an awful lot of pulling to extract the mangled carcass from the car.
Smelled for days!!!
