I just recently lost my kitty to cancer, I mentioned Bastet to him and how she would look out for him. Thank you for your great content, can't wait to see more.

Next to nothing has been done like this for Bastet, so I really appreciate how well informed this documentary is!

Bastet and Sekhmet are my favorite godesses from the Egyptian lore.

I have always been fascinated by the ancient Egyptian cat statues. I learned the name of the goddess Bastet, but didn't know anything about her. Your documentary has filled in that gap. Thank you I enjoyed watching.

I had a psychic vision of Bastet a few months ago. So beautiful! ♥️

My cat loves to be worshipped. I shower him with love and care. He is my best friend.❤

Naming all cats "Meow" gave me 5 year old vibes. So funny

Bastet is my favorite Egyptian goddess - one of my cats is named after her. So excited for this! Love your documentaries, Curtis!

I was raised by cats. I've had cats in my life for most of my 60 years. And I can safely say that the best cats are alive.

As an archaeologist, I just want to give a fangirl shout out to Salima Ikram, who is absolutely my favourite Egyptologist!!!

[daniellesapino]

I’ve seen a lot of ancient Egypt shows and docs and I must say thank you for always creating fresh content on topics that haven’t been covered 364828 times. 😻

Thank you for this video! My favorite part was where you were talking with Dr. Ikram; in my opinion, she is in the very top tier of scholars and experts, erudite and witty.

In the words of the late and magnificent Terry Pratchett: “In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.” I am the willing slave of three feline overlords, who watched this video with their customary expression of supreme self-satisfaction. ❤😂

[rosemariedeschenes]

Great documentary Curtis. As a cat person, I really loved this one. Thanks for sharing 😍😘

[MiniPagan]

I love Bastet, she is beautiful and amazing. I wish I could visit Bubastis

[voyaristika]

I've watched and read quite a bit on cats in ancient Egypt but never knew they all had one name, Meow. What a great piece of news. Don't know why but I find that delightful!

[mochacola]

I've always loved the story of Bastet. So awesome.

So glad to see Salima again.

What a wonderful and enlightening scientist she is!
