Answer:

48 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

Am interesting factoid about ratios:

The ratio a:b can be separated into fractional parts of \frac{a}{a + b} and \frac{b}{a + b}. We need to know the cat part. \frac{2}{5 + 2} = \frac{2}{7}, so that is the fraction part. Then, we multiply this fraction by 168 to get the total number of cats. This number is 48.
