Monster Buster Club is a children's CGI television series by Marathon Production. The show debuted on June 2, 2008, on Jetix in Europe and on June 9, 2008 on Jetix on Toon Disney in the United States and debuted in Asia on Disney Channel Asia and on May 3, 2008. This show is about three 10-year-olds charged with saving their town from alien invasions helped by an alien girl named Cathy. With her grandfather, they form the Monster Buster Club, often abbreviated to MBC. Using a network of secret tunnels running through the town, the MBC heroes conduct undercover alien investigations, seeking out the eccentric-looking bad guys with a knack for alien tricks. Despite being created by the same persons as Totally Spies and The Far-Out Adventures of Team Galaxy, this show isn't centered on fashion and the character seem to have more common sense.

A girl who comes from outer space. She has stretching powers and wears a pink Monster Buster Club suit. In "Detention" she was shown to have telekinesis. She refered to it as "an old Rapsodian energy tric". In "Popular kids" at the party, when she started dancing, she started to glow yellow and levitated a bit of the flor. In "Worlds toughes kid" she is shown to have telekinetic powers. She can make a person do something, but she has difficulty controling this power. Her weapon can transform into a sonic cannon, as seen in Mindreader. She has apparently kissed her cousin Elton (on the cheek, as she stated). Because of her alien origin, she doesn't know much about the Earth and sometimes it makes her look strange and even shallow. She has a blonde hair and blue eyes. It is also hinted Cathy may like Danny, because in "Mindreader" with Cathy may her cousin put on headphones he was chanting nana like Danny
