HELLO, KittyCat

Hello, meet KittyCat.
Shes l o v e s to lick
and to be licked.
Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Ohhhhhh, and to be stroked.

Now that I got your attention.
I was going to give you a little bit of history lesson today. On kitty cats.
Meow!
Well really the Egyptian cats, Bast and Sekhmet.

The cat is just one of the many Egyptian gods.
Sekhmet

It is probable that many of modern Indo-European names for the cat are derived from the word utchat: cat, chat, cattus, gatus, gatous, gato, katt, katte, kitte, kitty, etc

From "Pasht" we get the remaining Indo-European names for the cat: pasht, past, pushd, pusst, puss, pussy, as well as the word "passion".

Bast and Sekhmet were two Egyptian Cat Goddesses.

Bast
Goddess of Sensual Pleasure. (that is soooo me!)
Bast is the Egyptian Goddess with the body of a beautiful young woman and the head of a cat. She held many, sometimes contradictory, roles.
These beliefs were not all necessarily held at the same time, or in the same place. Beliefs shifted over several millennia, and over vast geographical distances, eliefs shifted over several millennia, and over vast geographical distances.

Bast is the Goddess of cats, the rising sun, the moon, truth, enlightenment, lesbians, sexuality, physical pleasures, fertility, bounty, birth, plenty, the household and protector of the home, civilization, creation, music, dance, the arts, hemp, and battler of serpents which attack the sun god.

Bast also represents the Maiden aspect of the Triple Goddess.
She was viewed as the beneficent side of the lioness-goddess Sekhmet.

Sekhmet
Sekhmet (Sakhmet) is one of the oldest known Egyptian deities. Her name is derived from the Egyptian word "Sekhem" (which means "power" or "might") and is often translated as the "Powerful One".

Sekhmet (AKA Sekhmet, Sakhmet, or Sekhmet the Destroyer) is the Goddess of sunset, destruction, death, rebirth and wisdom. She is also sometimes defined as a warrior or huntress goddess.

The cycle of life and death was created when the primeval Goddess Sekhmet-Bast divided into two sisters.  Another legend regarding her origins is that she was created by Ra from the fire of his eyes as a creature of vengeance to punish mankind for his sins.

Later, she became a peaceful protectress of the righteous, closely linked with the benevolent Bast.
Sekhmet is typically shown as a black skinned woman with the head of a lioness. Her eyes and hair are often orange or red. Sekhmet represents the Crone aspect of the Triple Goddess.

Halloween was originally celebrated
as the Feast of Sekhmet and Bast.

Hmmmmmmm, I wonder which kittycat I am?
