If you were baptised Catholic but never practiced are you still considered Catholic?
No.
In order to be Catholic you must practice your faith. If people ask, refer to yourself as a "former Catholic". Or say "I was baptized Catholic, but I am not practicing".
Most practicing Catholics would find it mildly offensive to refer to yourself as Catholic in that situation.
If you have interest in becoming Catholic, consult a Catholic priest. Usually you need to take a class and then you can be readmitted and receive the sacraments.
Roman Catholic AnswerYes, unfortunately, if you are baptised Catholic, then you are a Catholic forever, the answerer above has it partially correct, you are considered a "lapsed Catholic" by others, but still a Catholic. You will indeed be wise to seek a priest and attend RICA classes, but you can always go to confession at anytime and discuss this with the priest there.

Assuming that the original marriage was sacramentally valid (as a norm, the Church assumes the sacramental validity of all marriages between two Christians, unless there is manifest reason to doubt it), divorce and remarriage would never be accepted by the Catholic Church regardless of the other factors involved. Marriages cannot be ended by anything but the death of one or both spouses.

Can a Catholic baptism be annulled?
The Catholic Church does not accept that any baptism can be annulled. An ecclesiastical annulment is a declaration that a marriage never took place in spite of the couple undergoing a ceremony. Baptisms are conducted on the basis of either the faith of the person being baptised (if an adult) or the parents who promise to raise the child as a practising Christian. The Catholic Church teaches that a baptism cannot be repeated nor erased. Thus, Christians from other denominations are not rebaptised if the join the Catholic Church. This is because, in Baptism, the Church celebrates: (a) God's declaration that the person being baptised is His child (b) the person becoming a member of the Body of Christ (c) the forgiveness of sin. Regardless of subsequent actions on the part of the person being baptised, these declarations remain valid in the mind of the Church.
