Double dependency dropdownlist in excel - excel

Question

I have excel worksheet with :
three columns A, B, C with coloured animals:
cell D1 with dropdownlist with values: cat, dog, elephant, rabbit, lion
cell E1 with dropdownlist with values: yellow, red, white
Example data are like below:
A B C
---------------------------------------------------------
1 | cat yellow my loved yellow cat
1 | cat yellow my hated yellow cat
2 | cat red my favourite red cat
3 | dog white ugly white dog
4 | dog white elegant white dog
5 | elephant white beauty white elephant
6 | elephant yellow tiny yellow elephant
7 | rabbit red small red rabbit
8 | lion red red lion for my son
9 | lion white my pet lion white
Now in cell F1 I need to have the dropdown list dependent on values selected in cells in D1 and E1. So If you will select in D1 cat and in E1 yellow, you should have in F1 two options to select:
my loved yellow cat
my hated yellow cat
The solutions with one dependent column I do it:
Data -> Validation -> List -> in formula I paste:
=OFFSET($C$1,MATCH(D1,$A$1:$A$9,0)-1,0,COUNTIF($A$1:$A$9,D1),1)
But this filter only by animals and I have in dropdown three cats: my loved yellow cat, my hated yellow cat, my favourite red cat. But I need only yellow cats! Is method to create it like desctibed below?

Have a look here, there something very similar.
I think this is what you are looking for:
=IFERROR(INDEX(C1:C10, SMALL(IF(1=((--(D1=A1:A10))*(--(E1=B1:B10))), ROW(C1:C10),""), ROW())),"")
