From what you've described, all you need is DBIx::Class (and perhaps some of it's other modules) to abstract the databases. You can have multiple handles to all of your databases and pull them together in an OO interface. You don't need Catalyst or anything else, unless you want a framework.

You will want to read up on DBIx::Class, I think. Especially read about DBIx::Class::ResultSet, since this is where the meat and potatoes is, and where it really started to click for me personally.

You might also be interested in dbicdump to write a lot of the OO interface for you. It's part of the DBIx::Class modules.
