Excel Coding and Conditional Formatting

I am trying to make a code where if a specific work is in column f it will change any number greater than 0 to red in specific columns within the same row as the word.

 

For example Cell F6 says Cat

Cells H6 and M6 have the number 3 and the rest of the cells in that row are blank or 0

I would want this code to change H6 and M6 to red only.

 

Phrases in Colum F change and may not be in the same row each time. I have to make this code for 50+ keywords

    This is the rule for conditional formatting in the screenshot. The keywords can be entered in range A2:A50.

    =AND(MATCH($F6,$A$2:$A$50,0),G6>0,ISNUMBER(G6))

    This is the range the conditional format applies to.

    =$G$6:$N$12

     

    Does the screenshot show your expected result?
