Summary:
A caterpillar is a tree with the property that after deleting all its vertices of degree 1 a simple path is obtained. The signed 2-domination number $\gamma ^2_{\mathrm s}(G)$ and the signed total 2-domination number $\gamma ^2_{\mathrm {st}}(G)$ of a graph $G$ are variants of the signed domination number $\gamma _{\mathrm s}(G)$ and the signed total domination number $\gamma _{\mathrm {st}}(G)$. Their values for caterpillars are studied.
