Please help me with these sentences.
I have 4 cats. However, my favorite one is a grey one.
Is it wrong to use ‘however’? Should I write ‘I have 4 cats, and my favorite one is a grey one.’?
If it’s wrong to use ‘however’, please tell me the reason.

@HARUCS it's quite good to use the 'however' since you're telling that you do have 4 yet you're favorite is the grey one

I would not say it’s wrong. It is that “however” is too strong a word here perhaps, but. Also you are not changing the direction of the sentence.
For example, I have 4 cats. However my favorite animal is a dog.
Do you see how I changed the direction of the sentence.
