maybe somehow the spirit of a cat merged with her after the cat passed away... maybe on a camping trip she found a lynx in a trap; the cat had chewed its leg off to get free, and it was dying and she freed it and tried to save it, but it passed away anyway. And rewarded her with its spirit and abilities...
Maybe a Native American Medicine Man giver her powers while she is covering a story in the Rockies! Could she save the life of the Medicine Man's familiar?
Maybe she was on a camping trip with her doctor boyfriend; she saved the life of a red lynx kitten and then later on there was some kind of hiking accident and she needed an emergency transfusion and the momma lynx let the doctor draw her blood? Or maybe one of her parents escaped from Moreau Island?
She hasn't exhibited cat-control powers in any of the stories about her, but she's only appeared twice and there were no cats around for her to control in those stories..
So... suppose she goes to the zoo, and they have a really old red lynx and she finds out that the zoo is going to euthanize the old cat, so she convinces the zoo to let her adopt the old cat and let her live our her life in peace and comfort... And the cat, through years of captivity, has learned to understand English... and tells her that thanks to her generosity, the Goddess of North American Mountain Cats has decided to give her powers.
I think that sounds very Golden Agish?
In her first recorded appearance, she is patrolling San Francisco in April, 1943. She has been a heroine for some time, long enough so that the police know her. So that sets the location and the time frame. She was semi-retired by 1948, but she has made some appearances after that time.
In 1948, in her secret identity Kylynn McKenna, she is nationally known - she was the first woman to appear as a nationwide anchor on one of the major networks, and she has won national awards for her reporting. Don't know much about her background; she may have been an actress or a comedian.
Her powers include cat-like leaping ability, enhanced strength, speed and agility, probably enhanced night sight, and any other powers are current unrevealed. She also has sharp retractable claws; don't know if they are part of her or a gadget of some type.
She apparently rubs a token to activate her powers, and when she does, she can hear the roar of a big cat. Probably she is the only one who can normally hear the roar. She can share a small portion of her powers by touching someone as she activates her token, and that person can faintly hear the cat roaring. I don't know who gives her powers, it is probably a mystical being but it might be science-related.
She rides a motorcycle - probably a big, heavy, electric bike powered by lead-acid batteries. It is silent, has incredible acceleration, and a fairly limited range (maybe 100 miles?) between recharges.
She patrols by herself, doesn't have a sidekick, but she may have a support staff.
