cats were worshiped because they were a mixed genetically modified creature made of a snake and lion, gifted to the slaves as a farewell gift.

i fully believe that cats are spiritual protectors the same way dogs are physical protectors. I've gone into deep meditation before and felt the presence of my cat watching over me while I was vulnerable

The Egyptians did not treat every cat like a sacred untouchable creature. The cats people always talk about today as “holy” were the ones associated with Bastet, the goddess linked to fertility, protection, and feminine power. But outside of that religious symbol, cats were also bred in massive numbers specifically to be killed as offerings. Temples ran large cat-breeding farms where cats were raised purely for ritual use. Once the cats reached the right size, priests killed them quickly, often by breaking the neck or through suffocation, and then mummified the bodies. These mummified cats were delivered to the temples as physical offerings to the gods. Catacombs at places like Bubastis, Saqqara, and Speos Artemidos contain huge underground chambers packed with literally millions of these cat mummies. The scale alone shows that cats were not universally pampered or treated with divine reverence. They were used in the same way other sacrificial animals were used in many cultures. The goddess was sacred; the actual animals were resources for religious rituals. Dogs held a similar place in Egyptian life. They were valued for hunting, guarding, and companionship, and they were also associated with gods like Anubis. Dogs were mummified and offered too, and dog catacombs exist alongside the cat ones. So it’s not true that cats alone held some untouchable, special status above all other animals. The reality is that the Egyptians respected animals symbolically because they connected them to certain gods, but that didn’t mean every individual animal was treated like royalty. Many were ritual commodities bred specifically to be killed and buried in huge numbers.

Theory - Cats are special but what’s especially about them? I’d say when they put they let off a specific frequency that’s very beneficial in some way to the person holding them. They’re also so adorable.
