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)!

Yaaaasss. I have the PERFECT spot for my Brayton Lalguna cat on the built in etagere in my Palm Desert mid-century modern home.

Loving the jet black kitty today. Hope I win!
Jessica Davies says
Oh wow! Been eying these since they came out! We’re a feline family of 5 over here, so we’d love to adopt another cat without having to feed it. Love their look and the orange would go great with our decor. Thank you for all that you do!
Elaine Cantrell says
The cats are to die for!
Rachel says
I’d choose the black sculpture because black cats are the best! The other colors are pretty, though…
Des says
I’ve had an appreciation for mid century design since I discovered it as teen looking thru photo of my grandmother’s house from the 60’s. She had a similar cat that sat on her dresser and I always loved its sleek design!
