Considering that the replacement part is about $60 or $70 depending on where you get it from I'd go ahead and replace it. Considering that the catalytic converter produces a lot of heat I'd rather be safe than on fire.
Have you pulled the insulation out and see a classic 900 floorboard? It's not that thick and I'm not sure I'd trust it to disperse the heat. Imagine catching a paperbag on the road in between your cat. and the floorboard ... I'd hate to see the result at the next stop light. Best of luck either way!
