This is more common than you think!
Many, many, many years ago, my grandmother used to take pot-shots at cats prowling round the pond at the end of her garden, aiming for the wall about 100ft away. This is with an old 1900's German air rifle.

One day she did exactly the same - got Tiddles smack between the eyes, dropping it on the spot. She was mortified, but when I inherited the gun and was told the story I couldn't help but wonder if she's put a notch on the stock.

I keep the rifle well out of tempation's way now. Just. In. Case...

(we have cats and buns, I'd be bound to hit something fluffy if I ever fired it)
