Bastet

In Egyptian mythology, Bastet was a solar deity and a goddess of fertility and protector of pregnant women. She is also considered by some to be another aspect of Sekhmet. Her cult was centered in Bubastis. After the period of Hellenistic civilization, Bastet was considered the daughter of Isis and Osiris and was associated with Hathor. She was the wife of Ptah, with whom she was the mother of Nefertum and Mihos.

Alternative: Bast, Ailuros
