OK, so Bastet is probably an Iowa kitty of this day and age, found as a stray outside an office
building. But her timeless beauty and bold personality harken to another time and place … when
cats weren’t just beloved pets, but revered! “Bastet was named for an Egyptian goddess,” says
her foster mom, adding that the first words that come to mind about her are “wild child” and
“rambunctious.” While Bastet was a little unsure about mere mortals at first, she’s come around
to loving them on her own terms. “When she does decide to snuggle, she has the softest fur and
will snuggle in on your chest.” And she’s always up for playtime, whether it’s running a sprint or
splashing in her water dish in the most uniquely adorable way. Because Bastet is such a live
wire, her foster mom thinks she’d be happiest with a cat companion and family who would enjoy
playing with her. Does your home need a feline goddess like Bastet?
