I can only hear it when driving, and I'm sure its not the little ***** in the cat, I hear those little fockers when idling sometimes.

Tighten the rear control arms bolts. Mine did that for a while, also. I tightened them and it worked for a while. Then it started again. I changed the bolt and nut and no more squeaking. The bolt was stripped in a few areas and eventually worked loose after a few days.

If it is the cat I'd inspect the ignition system closely before simply replacing.

Muahahahaha................I found Mr. Squeaky 
It was an exhuast hanger. The hook on the hanger that goes through the the bushing was rubbing up against something else that was metal. My buddy at an exhaust shop said that it was common and fixed it for free.
