Just a nudge -- google, try to figure it out on your own, then ask the
cacti list. Nagios is doing its part correctly, you just need to learn
how to get cacti to pull information from a database. It just happens,
and is mostly irrelevant, that the database is populated by nagios. 

This feature from the cacti page looks to be just what you need --

"Contains a "data input" mechanism which allows users to define custom
scripts that can be used to gather data. Each script can contain
arguments that must be entered for each data source created using the
script (such as an IP address)."
