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.

That Duck!
Crossing the Thames on a footbridge I casually spat out a well chewed piece of gum into the water below. A duck rushed out of nowhere and grabbed the gum before if sank. The duck realising it's error tried to rid itself of the gum by swimming back and forth wobbling it's half open beak in the water and all the while quacking in a distressed manner.
Eventually the duck managed to dislodge the gum and paddled off, I however was in hysterics. My mates asked me what I was laughing at and all I could say between giggles was "that duck", "that duck"!
