Actually, there are several collective nouns for cats:

clowder of cats
clutter of cats
glaring of cats
pounce of cats
dout of cats (house cats)
nuisance of cats (house cats)

Excuse you, but all cats are royalty and cannot be grouped in any way.

If you did try to define it, it should probably be "Their Majesties."
