My Inky >>> March 12, 2016... · This was my Inky. You can tell from the pic what a character he was, --- so intelligent, alert, and unique, a cat of courage too. When he was about 12 he had a bad fall. One of the vets I took him to said he would never walk again, but I knew better. Inky did find a way to walk. He sort of skied along and he did fine. He died at 16.

The Lady Bastet & Her Cats...

Hex and Shadow Chronicles March 4 at 8:37 AM · Bastet is often remembered as the sweet cat goddess of Egypt, protector of the home, bringer of music, joy, fertility. But cats were never sacred because they were harmless. They were sacred because they were precise. A cat can sleep in sunlight for hours and still eliminate a threat in seconds. No hesitation. No warning beyond the moment it decides the boundary has been crossed. Bastet embodies that intelligence. She represents feminine power that does not live in constant defense. She is not pacing for battle like Sekhmet. She is not roaring to prove strength. She rests. And that is what unsettles people. Because contained power is harder to predict than aggressive power. Bastet teaches the sovereignty of selective engagement. The ability to enjoy peace without losing the capacity for protection. The understanding that you do not need to react to every provocation. But when the moment arrives the claws are there. In ancient Egypt, killing a cat was punishable by death. Not because the animal was fragile, but because the cat symbolized a sacred balance: grace and lethality in the same body. Bastet represents the feminine archetype that does not feel obligated to perform strength constantly. She knows it is there. She chooses when it matters. The cat does not chase approval. It does not overexplain its boundaries. It simply removes itself from what it does not respect and destroys what threatens its territory. Softness is not the absence of defense. It is confidence that defense is not always required. And Bastet is the quiet reminder that the most dangerous beings in the room are often the ones sleeping peacefully in the corner. Because they are not worried about proving anything. They already know what they are capable of.
