Glory in a group of social cats (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pride

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'glory in' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'cats' is the second definition.
(I have seen 'big cats' mean 'pride' so perhaps 'cats' could also mean 'pride')

'a group of social' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to one of the definitions.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pride that I've seen before include "Company of lions" , "They say it comes before a fall" , "big cats" , "Excessive self-esteem" , "Vanity" .)
