"Why Did You Let My Kitten Die?" is a song by Angelica, released as the band's second single. It had a limited release of 1000 copies on Fantastic Plastic Records and was voted Alternative Record of the Year by BBC Radio 1's Evening Session audience. The title track is a reference to the 1961 film Whistle Down the Wind, in which a group of children believe an escaped convict to be Jesus. The children give him a kitten to protect but when the kitten dies they question whether he is who they believe. The song also features on the mini-album The End Of A Beautiful Career.
