We had stray cats in an old nieghborhood where I used to live. Saying nothing to incrinate myself, one of the cats somehow ended up with the number "6" spray painted on both sides of it. It was a racing cat.
The paint only stayed on for about two weeks.

I left the dog out in the van overnight once. She loves car rides and jumps in any chance she gets. She must have gotten in there when we were getting the grocerys out. I went downstairs to watch a movie and assumed the the dog was upstairs with the wife. She of course assumed the dog was with me 🙁

Actually, I understand that humans CAN instinctively swim, even infants, just not well. I mean, can't everyone pretty much, float and dogpaddle, even for a little while?
Anyway, cruelest thing I ever did a pet? Well, I haven't had a pet since I was 13, and I'm pretty sure I never did anything particularly cruel to him. But my mother worked at an animal hospital part time when I was young, and I remember having to stay there (and out of the way) for a few hours, once a week, until my dad got off work. I remember there being this monster of a cat, that they kept in the back room. They were too kind to euthanize it and nobody wanted it (I think eventually they had to put it down). Anyway, anytime I went into the back room (which was open to the basement) the cat would attack and bite me. Finally, I recall it charging at me up the stairs (I was maybe 8 or 9) one day, and I just couldn't resist. I reflexively punted it. It kinda tumbled halfway down the stairs. It was fine, of course, but it decided I wasn't worth it after that, and we had an uneasy truce.
Looking back, I can't believe I did such a thing, as I am really slow to anger, but I guess that cat really pissed me off. 🙁
I had a dog that loved to chase snowballs but she didn't like going on the ice of the pond. So one day I threw a snowball onto the ice to tease her. To my surprise, she takes a flying leap off the bank, onto the ice and plunges through. Luckily, she was able to get out of water and was fine.

When I was in high school I put my stepsister's cat in the dryer and turned it on. I didn't want to be cruel so I set it to "No Heat".

I hold my dogs heads still, and then fart on them.

They really are great dogs. Not always the brightest, but definitely sweet and personality filled. It's hard to punish them when they give that guilty repentent look.
i was hitting tennis balls for my labrador with a baseball bat. my sister was holding onto him. he'd see me toss that tennis ball into the air and start after it before i swung it, but because my sister was holding on he couldn't go until the ball had been hit. well, my sister isn't the most physically competent person. you can figure out what happened.
dog was fine, but my father beat my ass pretty bad because my sister ran in yelling, 'michael just hit the dog in the head with a baseball bat!'

I had a skunk loach (a type of fish) that jumped out of his tank. I didn't know he was flopping around on the floor, and I stepped on him. Somehow I recognized quickly enough that I was standing on a fish that I was able to not put any real pressure down. I threw him back in the tank, and he lived for a couple more years.

I in fact do not have sex with men.
Are you retarded?
