When Kara responds as to why the name Streaky, Kara said "she reminds me of a cat I used to own," which made me think he had died. <br /><br />If Streaky had lost his powers, I suppose that means that Whizzy never existed. In the Encyclopedia of Super-Pets, we see a cartoon Whizzy at least.<br /><br />Also of note, maybe, lol, is that in Adventure Comics, Toymaster made an evil toy Streaky which was incorrectly written as female (and this had the fans writing in and complaining), the DC Direct 12" Supergirl figure incorrectly references Streaky as female, and Amanda Conner's Streaky *is* female, however here on Earth-Prime, orange cats are almost always male - I suppose that makes the female ones even more super. <br /><br />Other Streaky's in no particular order: <br />*PAD's Supergirl series had Chakat, who was a nod to Streaky but also had a non-powered actual cat named Streaky, <br />*Superman: TAS had a Streaky who Supergirl befriended, <br />*Pre-Flashpoint Streaky, <br />*Krypto: TAS Streaky the Super-Cat, <br />*(ugh, can't remember), it was JLU(?) in Kandor or one where everyone received powers and they showed a cat and a dog rise up and fly in the forefront, <br />*"Kingdom Come" had an orange cat as a nod to Streaky, <br />*"Super-Pets" books and DC nation animated shorts Streaky, <br />*Supergirl's Crucible had Tsavo, <br />*and of course, Kara Zor-L's Stinky. <br />*Oh yeah, and Cosmic Adventures Streaky! :)<br />*the Bishoujo statues with both good and Dark Super-Cats<br /><br />Any I missed?
