In the planet Katatonia, a fun-loving cat robot named Katbot is sent to an American family in Earth, as part of her schooling, to study tween culture. By using her Hypno-façade, she disguises herself as Katerina Botenski, a foreign exchange student from a small Eastern European country. The only person who knows her secret is her best friend, Junior Lebore, the son of her host family, though his little sister June is suspicious. Her mission upsets her cat "boyfriend" Eddie, who was hoping for her to stay. The show would've also had a MadScientist-type villain called Marcella Curd, who also knows of Katbot's secret and tries to expose her.

''Katbot'' is a 2001 [[WebAnimation web cartoon]] created by Angela Martini of Funny Garbage fame. In September 2005, the series was to get an AnimatedAdaptation on Creator/DisneyChannel, but it was cancelled. Martini later went on record to say that when they were making the show, she got pushed out of her own creation, and was pleased to hear that it got cancelled. The premise of the web series is somewhat different. Katbot is an adult rather than school-aged, her personality is more jaded and cynical, she's sent to Earth as part of her job, her mission is to study adolescent aggression levels in teenage American humans, and she's attending high school rather than junior high. For reference, contemporary news articles compared this version to ''WesternAnimation:Daria''.
