Yes, you're right. I noticed that too, while writing the initial message.

But other than that, does this matter come down to just personal preference ?

No, I think Lieven has it right. The second sentence not only makes no sense, it doesn't say what you want it to say. It's not a matter of preference. You want to say that you see a cat, the chancellor, and nothing else. You construct the noun phrase vIghro' Qang je cat and chancellor, then you modify that to say that that's all you saw: vIghro' Qang je neH only the cat and the chancellor.
