Solution

The correct option is A Holy
'Sacred' means connected with God or a god or dedicated to a religious purpose and so deserving veneration.
"sacred rites"
In this context, "The ancient Egyptians viewed cats as sacred and honoured them in art forms.", 'honoured' means holy. Hence, option A is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
