Jazal Goldmane is another fun general, although Kemba, Kha Regent and Raksha Golden Cub are more Cat tribal focused

It depends on what you want, but the only two good commanders that are designed for cat tribal are Kemba, Kha Regent with lots of cheap equips to pump out "litter"ally legions of cats or Brimaz, King of Oreskos to make lots of cat tokens for blocking too! Here are two example decklists, one for each: MagicalHacker - Kemba, Kha Regent, MagicalHacker - Brimaz, King of Oreskos.

If you want access to more cats than just the white ones, selesnya is the way to go (or naya for elemental cats too). But your problem there is the only multicolored legendary cat is azorius and god awful. If you want selesnya, I would go with Rhys the Redeemed or Trostani, Selesnya's Voice. But green adds in nice stuff like Jedit Ojanen of Efrava, Mirri, Cat Warrior, Fleecemane Lion, Qasali Pridemage, Sabertooth Nishoba, Doubling Season, and Parallel Lives

If you want to run a cat-tribal legendary, you are going to have to go mono.

White has 5 to choose from:Brimaz, King of Oreskos , Jareth, Leonine Titan , Jazal Goldmane , Kemba, Kha Regent , and Raksha Golden Cub.

Green has 2 to choose from:Jedit Ojanen of Efrava and Mirri, Cat Warrior.

Black has 2 to choose from:Mirri the Cursed and Purraj of Urborg.

The only multicolored cat-tribal legendary is Jedit Ojanen. If you REALLY want to stick to tribal and want to also play blue, I suppose he works. There are obviously better commander choices.

White has the best selection of cat-tribal creatures, instants, sorcery spells and planeswalkers. Green has the benefit of Doubling Season, Primal Vigor, and Parallel Lives which play to most cat-tribal strengths. If your play group is cool with it, they might let you use Ajani, Mentor of Heroes as your commander. My suggestion would be to find a green/white general that is not a cat and just use it for color access.

Like luther said, Rhys the Redeemed or Trostani, Selesnya's Voice are by far the best choices. Tokens and life gain are the two strongest features of cat-tribal. If you wanted to get really crazy, you can use Karador, Ghost Chieftain to have access to all three colors, and play a combination token/lifegain deck that uses black support cards like Exquisite Blood / Sanguine Bond to make your lifegain an alternate win con.

Kemba, Kha Regent and Konda's Banner is a fun bit of synergy. While Kemba can be fun I haven't found her to be super competitive, I think she'd do better in the tiny leaders format.
