In Outcast, Brook says something about the ways of the Tribe. But I remember in TNP somebody remarking, Oh, you're just assigned to them by your birth? Too bad! And Stoneteller choosing the biggest and strongest kits or the fast and nimble ones when they're born makes no sense either.

I feel like it’s unlikely that they’re assigned the moment they’re born, but from a pretty young age it’ll probably be easy to tell which ones are gonna be big and strong and which ones will be more lithe and nimble. They’re probably assigned within the first moon after they’re born, and I’m sure Stoneteller consults the Tribe of Endless Hunting for guidance, too.

It's probably a self-fulfilling prophecy. So long as the cat looks vaguely capable of it, they'll be trained and immersed in the chosen culture regardless. The training would naturally lend itself towards producing good cave guards and hunters, and so the cause and effect get intermingled here.
