I don't tend to believe that any one God or Goddess only works with male of female exclusively (some people might say differently). If you feel drawn to Bast, go with it. There's any number of reasons you could be...

I have a shrine dedicated to Thoth and Bast (although I don't follow an Egyptian path). As rainysoul said, read up on her, as much as you can find, and see where it takes you. Some seem to think that Bast and Sekhmet are one and the same; I am not quick to make such associations myself, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to read up on Sekhmet as well.

I am believed to be the daughter of Bast by many. I think you might be drawn to Bast because she is a mother figure. She is very protective of her children. You're prolly a decendant of Bast. You can be a decendant of more than one god or goddess. I have found almost everyone I know has more than one. Usually you would have a main one or two though. Mine is definantly Bast. I've talked to her many times. She protects me in my times of need.
Info:
She's a cat goddess. She loves her children very much and is believed to also be the goddess of motherhood or fertility. Bast is a egyptian goddess. She is the daughter of Ra. She is well known for protecting Ra from his enemies as he pulled the sun accross the sky with a boat, that's why she's known for having the all seeing eye. There are many other stories of her. I know which ones are true so if you want to know just ask me and I'll ask her ^_^.
