Would it be 猫 が 好き、 でも 犬 が 好く ない。

Also, can you tell me if I picked the wrong particle? Thanks in advance.
You sort of picked the right ones. However, when you contrast things, は is often preferred. So perhaps

ねこは好きですが、いぬは好きではありません。

Also, usually you will see animals written not with kanji. Especially ねこ in this case.
