Bastet is the Ancient Osirian goddess of cats, desire, sensuality, and secrets. She protects against epidemics, evil, and snakes. She is usually relaxed and indolent, but Bastet's anger can be terrible.[1]

Cults
Bastet is the patron of rogues and bards. She is particularly popular among women, and most of her clerics are female. They usually keep cats as pets, and when these cats die, they are mummified and buried with their owners.[1]
Bastet's temples host elaborate, decadent festivals, and are home to sacred prostitutes of both sexes.
