I don't think that Ransome was particularly antagonistic towards dogs or William in particular, just as a cat lover (as I am), he probably did not know and understand them (as I do not) like a dog lover does.
Cats being much more carnivorous than dogs cannot really taste sweet flavours apparently and so chocolate does not have the same attraction to them as it has to more omnivorous dogs. We used to hide small Easter eggs around the house for our children and our cats if they ever found them never tried to eat them. Many dogs would silver paper and all.
