Oh, yeah, I do see the crack now. Yes, your cat is done. Cracks means imminent failure, and when the front fails, it typically just packs into the rear and clogs that one. Combined with your symptoms, it's a pretty clear diagnosis to me.
If you are under 80k, talk to your dealer about a replacement.

8 years from the date of first sale. If you have a 2004, you might be past, but might not.
And then again, there are times that the year requirement is ignored when it comes to emissions, so I'd say that it's always worth a shot to talk to them about it.

No it is 8 years 80k miles like they stated.
Scroll down to design and defect http://www.epa.gov/oms/consumer/warr95fs.txt . Some companies out there are known to deny the warranty if you can't show you did every bit of maintenance to your car. Mazda is pretty good about it though since they understand the rotary can eat cats.
