    Welcome aboard :) and yes i agree with Dez as you get  build up of carbon as well as other things in the cat which can very slowly block the cat up and a clear sign of it having a blockage is to shake the cat to see if you can hear any rattling as such which is a clear sign of build up but don't go hitting it with a hammer as it can completely loosen up any depositson on the inside of the cat making matters alot worse and even stop your engine from running at all ..
