Pakhet, the Egyptian goddess of hunting, storms, war and night. She was known by epithets such as "The Night Huntress" and "She Who Scratches". Pakhet is associated with Hathor and, therefore, is a sun deity as well, wearing the solar disk as part of her crown. Her nature was seen as a blend between the ferocity of Sekhmet and the gentler aspect of Bastet.
Update: Added a tail, changed iris colour, changed background colour, and touched up shading on left shin. Subsequent feline goddesses (like Bastet and Sekhmet) will also have tails from now on.

Nice. My most exotic find for a feline deity was Weret Hekau - and the most weird one in general was Khepri (a beetle as a head? What the heck?)
Ancient Egypt lasted for ca. 3000 years - I guess the are a lot more to find and be inspired by βΊοΈ
