CardView extends FrameLayout so you should be able to set LayoutParams. Try something like this :

 CardView.LayoutParams layoutParams = (CardView.LayoutParams)
            catCard.getLayoutParams();
    layoutParams.height = 10;

, dont forget that setting Width is also required. Or create new LayoutParams like this (not tested) :

CardView catCard = new CardView(getApplicationContext());
// sets width to wrap content and height to 10 dp ->
catCard.setLayoutParams(new CardView.LayoutParams(
     CardView.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 10));

catCard.setMinimumHeight(10);
