I'm assuming here that the name should be 'category_id'.

You'll need to get the array into the proper format. You can probably
do that with the Set class but, otherwise, do something like:

$options = array();
foreach($data as $k => $v)
{
$cat_name = $v['Cat']['title'];

$options[$cat_name] = array();

foreach($v['Subcat'] as $sub_cat)
{
$options[$cat_name][$sub_cat['id']] = $sub_cat['title'];
}
}

$this->set(compact($options));
