  1. you need to add ‘paged’ attribute in argument($catquery).

    $paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? absint( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) : 1;
    $catargs = array('cat'=>'2','posts_per_page'=>10,'paged' => $paged);
    
    $catquery = new WP_Query( $catargs);
    while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
    //do stuff
    endwhile;
    
    $big = 999999999; 
    echo paginate_links( array(
        'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
        'format' => '?paged=%#%',
        'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
        'total' => $catquery->max_num_pages,
        'prev_text'          => __( 'Previous page', 'twentyfifteen' ),
        'next_text'          => __( 'Next page', 'twentyfifteen' ),
    ) ); 
    
  2. You should add these pagination functions before or after your loop (before or after the while loop):

    <div class="nav-previous alignleft"><?php next_posts_link( 'Older posts' ); ?></div>
    <div class="nav-next alignright"><?php previous_posts_link( 'Newer posts' ); ?></div>
