Final report, Saturday, June 8: Congratulations to Kristin, Jenny, and Margie — our three winners, all confirmed! Thanks, everyone, for playing! ENTRIES NOW CLOSED.
It’s giveaway time — and this time, there will be three winners! Once I started talking with the owner of Bauer Pottery about the mid mod mad Brayton Laguna cats the company is now making from original 1960s molds, it seemed like a no-brainer that a giveaway would follow. And indeed, Bauer Pottery is generously offering to send one of these sleek sculptures to three winners. Choose your color!

How to enter to win:
- To win, you must be a subscriber to our newsletter (Yes, this is “what’s in it for the blog” — you can opt out at any time after the contest ends, or continue on for the stories and other, occasional giveaways.)
- To enter, use the Comment field below and tell us something about these cool cats — which color would you choose, why do you like them… or tell us whatever, this is all for fun.
- You can enter once per day now through Monday, June 3, 6 p.m., when entries close. (You only need to subscribe to the newsletter once, though!)
- U.S. and Canada only.
- Prize: There will be three winners. Each winner will receive one cat, in one of the five stock colors of their choice, directly from Bauer Pottery.
- Pam will choose the winners via the Random Number Generator at random.org. I will check if the ‘winner’ is a newsletter subscriber. I will email the winner. [Tip: Be sure you enter your email address correctly in the email field of the Comment form.] The winner will have five business days to respond. If I do not hear from them, I will choose the next person after who commented. Lather, rinse, repeat. I will post the winner’s first name as soon as all is confirmed.
- Terms of use apply.
Thank you so much, Bauer Pottery (see all the cool cats and their full product line here)!

So so ✨swanky✨! I’d just love to have the aqua or orange I have places in my 1956 midcentury modest house we’re either would work!
Kathryn says
I can’t have a real kitty right now, and would love a Bauer Kitty!
Have a Tiki Summer!

The aqua blue! I am having to tear out and redo much of my house due to extreme circumstances, and this lovely piece would bring much joy, and a dash of midcentury mod to my house!
Valerie Boaz says
Oh the black one, for sure!
Josip P says
I would want the copper green cat. Due to the design of the cats, they can be displayed by an 1940’s radio or even on Victorian piece of furniture.
Phyllis Craine says
Black or orange…Tabby or Siamese! So hard to choose
Julia B says
Ooh, the turquoise one would look so good on my Broyhill Saga room divider!
BobinAlabama says
My family has always had cats as pets, so I’m already biased. Beyond that, the Brayton Laguna Cat is an icon of mid century design. A black one, please!
Tracy says
Tough decision since we have a black cat and an orange kitten…yes, it’s chaos! The black is so classic though! Thanks for the contest!
Christine says
Aqua, for sure. I’m sitting here looking across the room at the spot where it would live. ?
