Cat Gods & Cat Goddesses From Ancient Cultures
6 Cat Gods & Cat Goddesses From Ancient Cultures
uthor Terry Pratchett said, “In ancient times, cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.” When you hear this phrase, do you automatically think of ancient Egyptian cat goddesses and cat gods? Probably. Do you think of any other cultures when it comes to cat goddesses, cat gods and worshipping cats? Probably not.

Here are six tales about cat gods and cat goddesses that you might not know.
