you time variable is non-CF-conform

    int timestp(tstep) ;
                timestp:title = "time steps" ;
                timestp:units = "time steps (days) since 1980-01-01 00:00:00" ;
                timestp:long_name = "time steps (days) since start of month" ;

   float Rainf(tstep, lat, lon) ;

use the same name for dimension and variable ('Time') and a correct unit ('days since 1980-01-01'). Then cdo cat should work
