Comment (by logiclord):

 i think i understood what is your issue
 when you create a category say Test'Cat it is shown as Test’Cat but
 actually its Test'Cat
 and when you use get_cat_ID( "Test’Cat" ) it doesn't give a matching ID so
 do not go by ’ use ' that you typed while creating that category.
