I also have the same problem where I live. The scratches left on mine where thankfully buffable. The bad thing is the cats belong to one of my neighbors ( a good friend of mine). That same day I went over and nicely explained what had happened, he apologized and it hasn't happened again. Although I'm sure those useless cats are just waiting for it. Lol

If they don't want to pay it, then I would file a claim in civil court. If you can prove that their cats did the damage, you will win the suit. If they are going to own thngs that may cause damage to someone elses property they had better be prepared to pay for the damages. When you go for the estimate, I would go to the guy that did the paint job for you. He might even just be able to buff it out depending on how bad it is.
I would go with this. It's no different than say a dog getting excited and jumping up on a vehicle. I would expect the owner to pay for the damages.

I would get a few animal traps and put a little food in side it. Next morning if you have a cat in there take it back to the owner and say this is a polite warning, if it happens again it's going to the pound

Or show up with the cat in a trap. Tell him he better keep an eye on it because you wrestled this away from the guy that works at the Chinese restaurant.
