[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 🙂

    Two of my favorites in life: kittahs and Everything Mid Century Modern. I’d love the green Bauer Cat to add to my mantel.

    Ohboyohboyohboy! I love the orange kitty (though I prefer to call him ginger)! This would be a great kickoff to my plan to eventually get one of every color- and no litter boxes! Best. Kitties. Ever.

    I’d probably pick the aqua. Our family cat of 8 years recently had to be put down and this would be a good reminder on the mantel of Ollie.

    Oooh these are gorgeous! I love cats, I am a cat person and love the shape of a cat’s form. The green is such a pretty shade, but the black one calls me! It would look perfect in my mcm home- I have just the shelf for it. 🙂

    Long time reader, first time poster (I think) . . .

    Have two black cats at home, so a black Brayton Laguna cat would fit right in at home. On the other hand, we have a black cat at the office, so maybe it would end up at work instead. But then our work colors are teal-ish, so maybe the aqua would be the best fit at the office. Nah. I’d probably still pick black.

    Then again, the chances I’ll win are pretty slim, I’ll just have to live vicariously through the winners. Hopefully they’ll share photos of their cats in their new homes so the rest of us can see what lovely homes they found.

    I love cats and we own a black kitty named Lew. So, I would have to go with the black cat for sentimental reasons. These are so cool.

    OMG! I love these cats. I would like orange or black! Orange because it’s my accent color and my oldest daughter loves orange cats, and I love her. Black because our last, beloved cat was black.

    I would love the black, I have a nice little collection of vintage kitties and this would fit in well!
