Thank you all. That helped determine what the things were called and I ended up finding some on Ebay for a fairly good price. Had to wait about 2 weeks (from China), however they seem to be fairly good quality and work just fine. I purchased this below (a 6-pack) and they are an exact fit to the original one.

Home Push-to-Open One-touch Cabinet Cupboard Door Catch Latch 48mm Long

Specification:
Product Name Door Catch
Material Metal, Plastic
Overall Size 48 x 28 x 11mm/ 1.9" x 1.1" x 0.4"(L*W*H)

I figure with a 6-pack, it can break 6 times before I have to do this again. Smile Hope this helps anybody else in the same situation.
