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.

Digital Extermination SquadA guy who used to work here called Terry pissed himself laughing telling me about this in the office;
There was a time in work where we'd been "volunteered" (ie forced at gunpoint) to support Digital Television problems with customers. None of us really knew what we were doing at first, but slowly started to get to grips with certain parts of the system and service. Terry was busy fixing these and gets the following call;
"...well my TV box stopped working around the time in which my dog was chewing the coaxal and power wires behind the box."
Terry rightfully says "Ah, because that is damage caused by the dog then it's likely that our engineers will charge you for fixing that, as it is external damage to the equipment."
The customer gives a verbal nod of agreement, and Terry starts creating a job for the engineer. As he's doing this, Terry asks "Oh by the way, how's the dog sir?"
"He's dead thanks."
"Ahh......"
Digital Dog killing ahoy :D
