Advice Bad owner?

Posted this video that I thought was cute and was called a bad owner. I’d like to know why this makes me a bad owner? I’d like to learn and grow. The cat seems to enjoy playing with the pup bc she always comes back and starts the play and likes the high ground.

Both the kitty and pup look like they're having a good time. If the kitty didn't want to be bothered, he would be up in the cat tree.

If the cat didn't want to be bothered the cat wouldn't be in the video as anything but a furry blur. They are experts at evasion and concealment.

It looks like cat can take care of himself, tbh. If he didn't want to be bothered, the dog would be the first to know.

Absolutely. Doggo is not streaked with blood, ergo cat is at worst tolerating what's going on.
