Old animated show with kids and aliens?

Hey folks, I'm trying to recall this cartoon I used to watch in the mid-90s. It had a group of kids who made friends with an alien. They used to have these cool gadgets and would often have to keep the alien a secret while going on adventures. I remember the alien could shapeshift or do some neat stuff. Any idea what this could be?

Sounds like 'My Favorite Martian'. There was also a show named 'Roswell Conspiracies: Aliens, Myths and Legends' around that time, but that had more of a secret agency vibe with kids. 🤔

Could it actually be 'The Secret Files of the Spy Dogs'? It’s a bit of a stretch but it had that vibe of secrecy and gadgets, but then again, maybe not. So many alien cartoons out there!

Hmmm, you might be thinking of the cartoon 'The Widget' or 'Widget the World Watcher'! It was an Australian show from that era, featuring an alien who could transform too. Check that out and see if it rings any bells.

BraveStarr? Though I think that's more cowboy space aliens, lol 🤷🏻‍♂️. These old shows are all a blur sometimes!

I think you might be remembering the show 'Eek! The Cat'. While not exactly fitting your description, it had quirky adventures and imaginative gadgets! Sifting through these memories is a wild ride!

'Animorphs'? Not really a cartoon, more live-action, but maybe you’re thinking of something similar!

I'd check on mid-90s network lineups. Sounds a lot like 'The New Adventures of He-Man' but with aliens and children. Honestly, some details seem jumbled, perhaps a mix of multiple shows.

Man, aliens and kids? That was like every 90s cartoon, am I right? Lol. Hope you find it!
