GURPS Prime Directive is set in the Star Fleet Universe, based on Star Fleet Battles, which in turn contains elements of the original Star Trek series (ST: TOS). It isn't strictly speaking a Star Trek product, and its license doesn't encompass ST in general.

The Kzinti are there, complete with racial templates. I can't comment on how the GURPS Prime Directive version of the Kzinti stacks up against the version Niven wrote into ST: TAS, or how much either has in common with the version in his Known Space material. I'm not an expert on any of the three.
