Since You want to do it without complicating the code with ajax,

solution is simply sending POST request and defining DELETE method as hidden field.

For simplicity You can add that field using method_field helper:

@foreach($data as $product)
  <tr  style="height:50px">
    <td style="padding:10px">{{$product->cat_name}}</td>
    <td><a class="btn btn-sm btn-fill btn-primary"
           href="{{url('/admin/editCategory')}}/{{$product->id}}">Edit</a></td>

    <td>
      <form 
        method="post" 
        action="{{url(''admin/removeCategory')}}/{{$product->id}}"> 

        {!! Form::token() !!}
        {{ method_field('DELETE') }}

        <button 
          type="submit"
          onclick="return confirm('Are you sure?')"
          class="btn btn-sm btn-fill btn-primary">Remove</button>
      </form>
    </td>

  </tr>
@endforeach

and make sure after deleting object it's returning back to listing:

public function removeCategory($id) {
  $Cat = cats::find($id);
  if ($Cat) {
    $Cat->delete();
  }
  return redirect()->back();
}
