You can have it replaced if you want to. If it's no problem removing it yourself, then you could, though I would suggest having someone who knows how and the equipment to do it remove it. You can have it replaced or just go without it--depends on where you are. I have my cat removed, and it doesn't cause me any problem (and in fact, I passed emissions when I reregistered my car yesterday--and there I thought I might not make it).

you can change it out yourself. it sounds like the cat is hollowed out and your running rich and thats why it smells like rotten eggs.
