Appearance
Baby Kate is an aardvark like her parents and siblings. She wears a pink shirt, green pajama pants, white disposable diapers, and a yellow bow in her hair. Her swimwear are only swim diapers that are about the same color as regular diapers.

Personality
She's able to communicate with Pal, Mei-Lin and other animals or babies but people who are older than her dismiss it as "baby talk" gibberish, and Kate and the animals interpret grownups' talk likewise. She enjoys playing in her sandpit and shows remarkable intelligence for her age, despite not being able to communicate with people older than herself. But in one episode she couldn't hear Pal correctly at times. Despite being a year old, she rarely stands up.
