Dear Mr. Reynolds:
On behalf of Catasys, Inc. (the “Company”), we are hereby responding to the comments given by letter (the “Comment Letter”) dated May 11, 2011 by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The responses are numbered to correspond to the comments set forth in the Comment Letter, which, for convenience, we have incorporated into this response letter, and are based upon information provided to Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C. by the Company.
Form S-1
Plan of Distribution, page 15
| 1. | You state on page 15 that you “intend to engage one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or selling agents to sell the securities.” Please confirm that you will file a post-effective amendment with revised disclosure and exhibit under Item 601(b)(1) of Regulation S-K in the event you engage a selling agent. |

Signatures

Response: Peter Donato, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, serves as both the Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer. Mr. Donato signed the Registration Statement as Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, but the Company inadvertently failed to include the title of Principal Accounting Officer under his name. The Company will file a post-effective amendment prior to any sales under this Registration Statement with his correct titles.

| 3. | Please amend your Form 10-K to include a Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting that contains an effectiveness conclusion, as required by Item 308(a) of Regulation S-K. |
Response: Concurrently with the filing of this response letter, the Company has filed Amendment No.1 to Annual Report on Form 10-K/A to include an effectiveness conclusion.
The Company acknowledges the Commission's references regarding requests for acceleration of the Registration Statement, including Rules 460 and 461.
