(also Catallus and Cathal) is commemorated as bishop of Rath-derthaighe on March 20, in the Irish calendars; and at Lathrisk, in the parish of Falkland, Fifeshire, there was a dedication to a St. Cattel. Colgan suggests that Cathneus, one of St. Patrick's disciples, may have had his name corrupted to Cathcan.
