Fleming's left hand rule is meant for the movement of positively charged particles.

But cathode rays are stream of negatively charged electrons. So opposite to the previous one. And like postive charge it will make a circular trajectory.

If cathode rays are projected at right angles to a magnetic field, their trajectory is
