Yes, the ancient Egyptians revered a goddess associated with cats named Bastet (or Bast). She was often depicted as a lioness or as a woman with the head of a lioness or domestic cat. Bastet was a goddess of home, fertility, and domesticity, and cats were considered sacred animals in her honor, symbolizing grace and protection. Killing a cat, even accidentally, was punishable by death in ancient Egypt due to their revered status.
