For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I've killed a number of animals, a few rabbits, a few fish and some wood pigeons when I was younger but unfortunately never had the stomach to gut them and eat them. Feel really guilty about it now though and I always try not to kill insects that get into my flat. We often put those wee mney spiders on our spineless yukka to play on and try to waft any flying ones out the bay window! I'm not a veggy yet but I've also toyed with the idea, but I think if it's an accident or if you eat it it's fine to kill something.
When I lived in Australia I shot a few rabbits, a couple of kangeroos, 1 snake and a sh1te load of of bull ants, oh and my brother (only in the foot) ........well the sight wasnt straight , thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it lol :-))
I was young BTW, and anything we killed was gutted and skinned and used to feed our cats and dogs.

whilst in the atlantic, for a few weeks me mate saved a bird, which was exhausted, so after a few days of feeding and watering it, he decided to let it go, he cupped it in his hands and gently threw it offff the ship, expecting to see it fly away happily, unfortunatly it just dropped like a stone into the ocean, he was heartbroken...........
another mate used to go shooting on a friends farm land, he took some new guys, and went to tell his mate, he was there, his friend asked if he would shoot a cow, that was poorly, to put it out of its misery,
so he thought he would play a joke on the others waiting
"miserable old git, wont let us shoot! Watch this i'll show him!" he told them, and went into the field and shot the cow, the others were amazed, and then, grabbed their guns and went into a nearby field to shot a few, to help him, after much shouting, he told them he was joking, it cost him a fortune.......

Am ashamed to say I had a c-a-t astrophe a couple of years ago. Drove the few miles to my inlaws, the car was struggling and towards the end of the journey seemed to lose power altogether. I called the RAC . a small cat had climbed up into the engine, fallen asleep and had met an orrible death getting wrapped round the fanbelt when I started the car ! I suffered many sleepless nights afterwards not least because the cats mother howled outside our house for days!
