I had the same problem a while ago, my oil pan gasket was leaking and spraying oil on the cat and causing smoke to come up. Also, it could be a coolent leak, which is leaking fluid onto your exhaust and burning it cause smoke to come up.

Good luck, hope this helps.

What does it smell like? Antifreeze or oil (or something else)?
