Cat is the resident 'gene genie' on Radio Wales' family history show, Look Up Your Genes.
The team has travelled the length and breadth of Wales since the series started in early 2003.
She's answered all sorts of queries on tracking down ancestors and has uncovered some great Welsh history stories.
These have included everything from the account of the Pembrokeshire woman transported to Australia in the 19th century for stealing money, to the sad history of Edward Stollard and his 15-year-old son William. They were both killed in a 1902 mining accident in Blaenavon on their first morning working at the pit.
Until 2001 Cat lectured in exercise psychology at Cardiff. She then decided to turn her passion for solving family history problems into a full-time career.
Now she does what she does best and finds anything you've lost, apart from your hair or your marbles!
