Default Weird Rattle Under Car

Hello all, getting this weird rattle whenever i have the car in gear but stopped. Goes away when driving. Doesn't matter if i am in reverse or drive. I took a video which is super short due to the 5mb limit but i hope it can help. if anyone has any ideas, i would appreciate the guidance. Rattle is coming from under the car around the cats,trans pan. Heat shields look in place, could the cats be going bad? had them replaced 3 years ago.

Sounds like heat shield rattle to me. Had something similar going in my car a while ago. Took it to a muffler shop, they cut off rusted remains of the heat shield, the rattle was gone and never came back.
