@ 'takin forever'

Oh no, sorry to hear that. That sounds fishy to me. I think you have a case of Thrips, and you may need to spray your orchids. Catts are very hardy and really don't blast at such a late stage in the bloom development just like that. You should follow a monthly spray regimen rotating to a different insecticide ever few months.
