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.

Not me, I promise!My sister has had 6 pets – 2 hamsters, one of which killed itself under its wheel, the other I forget what happened to it, probably hung itself. Next she had 2 gerbils, woke up to find one gerbil and remnants of fur and feet. Next she had a mouse which filled the room up with the smell of it’s’ urine. Then she got a cat, it spent two weeks inside the house, then when it was allowed outside got run over by a car.
We’re thinking of getting her a pet rock this Christmas, at least she can’t be cruel to that!
Length? It covered a 2 metre square area and it took ages to clean the road.
