[Entries now closed] Win a Brayton Laguna cat by Bauer Pottery — three winners!

Pam Kueber - Updated: October 8, 2020

Retro Renovation stopped publishing in 2021; these stories remain for historical information, as potential continued resources, and for archival purposes.

brayton laguna catFinal 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!

After my initial story Bauer Pottery asked if they could send me a cat, and I accepted the gift so that I I could check it out and photograph it in a room setting for this giveaway. I think the cat is scrumptious, and my husband saw it and was like, wow! As you can tell, I’m partial to the black. Thank you, Bauer 🙂

How to enter to win:

  1. 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.)
  2. 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.
  3. 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!)
  4. U.S. and Canada only.
  5. 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.
  6. 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. 
  7. Terms of use apply.

Thank you so much, Bauer Pottery (see all the cool cats and their full product line here)!

    Hi!

    That is one cool cat! I believe when walking in the front door, my home should make me smile. I love eclectic and colorful art as I cannot limit myself to just one “style.”

    Here’s hoping I might bring home an orange Brayton Laguna cat to join the many other treasures in our home that make me smile!

    Too difficult to decide!! I would need to buy all of them and spread them around the house (although I am partial to the pink and the orange!). Love these cats!

    I’m so excited that the time for the drawing is close. We’ve collected Bauer for years, starting with a small ring milk pitcher in 1985. We would be so grateful to get one!
    Picking a color would be difficult—but I’ll give it a try, lol.
    1. First choice would be black
    2. Second choice would be jade. I love the color and many of our other Bauer pieces are jade.
    3. Third would have to be the red/orange. Then we’d have a kittie statue that looks like our cat Harvey.
    4. Fourth would probably be pink with white in last place.
    We would absolutely LOVE it!

    Pink all the way! I love anything retro, plus I have 4 kitties who would love a new friend. Me please!

    Love Bauer pottery, especially the cats. Pam, I’m hoping for a report on your trip to the Arizona tiki convention. Wish I could have gone and seen your presentation!

    Cool! I didn’t realize how tall she is! My color choice changes from day to day.

    Hard to choose a color—although black is always good. I remember my aunt having one of these. I thought it was so cool!
