Any auto parts chain should carry them, or, probably for a significantly higher price, you can buy one from any Honda dealership.
One note of caution, if you are buying from a parts store, make certain that they sell you a “direct fit” catalytic converter. The sometimes sell “universal” fit pieces that require all sorts of modifications to use, the direct fit part is a bolt in copy of the original part.
You first should find out why the old one failed, so the same thing doesn’t happen to the new one. They usua;;y die from overheating, due to too rich a mixture, or a misfiring spark plug.

Look at your exhaust header. Most likely your cat on that model is right there. And that’s why it cracked. So you most likely need a header + cat. If it where me, I would relocate the cat to under the car, and put a nice header in. The cat + header is expensive, and most likely will break again. It was a poor design.
