Kat Manx

Dr. Katherine Manx is an alien with cat-like features who is in charge of all research and design for Ranger technology. However, Kat has also shown to have a good deal of fighting potential and quite able at holding her own in a fight. Despite her young and beautiful looks, she is about 147 human years old.

Back in 2001, Kat worked with some of the parents of the B-Squad Power Rangers in developing the Morphing Technology used today in the S.P.D. Morphers. However, these experiments had side effects that, while did not affect Kat, they did affect the B-Squad Parents, thus how the B-Squad Power Rangers got their Civilian Powers.

Kat has also shown to have great fighting skills. During her battle with Mooney and Krybots, Kat was able to morph once and become Cat Ranger. However, this was only temporary and the Cat Ranger powers were never seen again.

In the final battle against the invading Troobian forces, Kat, Boom and Omega Ranger led the S.P.D. Cadets in battle to protect the Delta Base. After the Rangers defeated Omni and Gruumm, Kat remained at S.P.D. Earth Station.

Kat is who the Power Rangers look to for technical support. She has designed most of the Rangers weapons - and is Commander Cruger's trusted assistant and friend. Her home planet was also attacked by the Troobian Empire, so she has joined in S.P.D.'s fight against evil. She may be just a lab technician, but she can hold her own. had a baby name abby manx she the leopard ranger.

S.P.D. Kat Ranger
Kat is recruited to S.P.D. central command under request by Supreme Commander Birdie. She returns to Earth with a temporary Morpher and becomes the Kat Ranger to stop an old friend with a grudge. Although her time as a Ranger is limited (her morpher has only enough power for one hour according to Birdie; whether or not she used it all up or simply used some of it is unknown), she realizes the Rangers need her skills on Earth. When Commander Cruger and B-Squad are captured, she is one of the ones who leads the remaining S.P.D. Cadets into battle against the invading Troobian Empire.
