In the Old Kingdom, Bastet appeared as a lioness associated with the sun god Ra, embodying heat, wrath, and royal authority.  By the Middle and New Kingdoms, Bastet was increasingly depicted as a cat or a woman with a cat’s head, emphasizing gentler aspects: household protection, fertility, sexuality, and childbirth.  She was also believed to ward off disease and evil spirits, making her a protection deity and popular in everyday domestic religion.  Bastet’s primary cult center was located in the Nile Delta city of Bubastis, where pilgrims would participate in lavish festivals in her honor. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRuler (not included) will give you an approximation of size. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:run-in;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display:none;\"\u003e Product--Toys \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/evenstarschalice.com\/search?q=%22Product--Toys%22\" title=\"Other Toys\"\u003eOther Toys\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:run-in;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display:none;\"\u003e Product--Plush \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/evenstarschalice.com\/search?q=%22Product--Plush%22\" title=\"Other Plush\"\u003eOther Plush\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:run-in;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display:none;\"\u003e Product--Mythology \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/evenstarschalice.com\/search?q=%22Product--Mythology%22\" title=\"Other Offerings related to Mythology\"\u003eOther Offerings related to Mythology\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:run-in;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display:none;\"\u003e Product--Bastet \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/evenstarschalice.com\/search?q=%22Product--Bastet%22\" title=\"Other Offerings related to Bastet\"\u003eOther Offerings related to Bastet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:run-in;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display:none;\"\u003e Product--Egyptian Statues \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/evenstarschalice.com\/search?q=%22Product--Egyptian+Statues%22\" title=\"Other Offerings related to Egyptian Statues\"\u003eOther Offerings related to Egyptian Statues\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Pacific Giftware","offers":[{"title":"Large","offer_id":51158724116768,"sku":"NCTP5J","price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small","offer_id":51158724149536,"sku":"QWK13U","price":18.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0763\/2158\/7488\/files\/Bastet_Plush_1.jpg?v=1769537825","url":"https:\/\/evenstarschalice.com\/products\/bastet-plush-toy","provider":"Evenstar's Chalice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
