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)!

I remember my mom had one of these. I don’t remember what happened to it but I would love a black one!
Stephanie says
The Laguna cats are so cool. Would love the real or orange because they are so unexpected colors.

This reminds me so much of my younger day. The black would look so good in my TV room
Char Eve says
Actually…We had a toilet brush holder which was a knock off of one of these sleek cats!!

We just moved our retro belongings into a new house, like built this year. This modern kitty would be our perfect bridge between our worlds. This could be a blog post theme, too, how to bring retro successfully into a 21st century modern house.

I just found 2 red Viking glass cat paperweights (?) in very similar design. I also have a similar design in wood. Would love the ceramic one to add to the theme. Black of course!

What a lovely surprise to wake up to this morning!
Kristi says
This cat reminds me of a sculpture my mom had when I grew up in the 1960s. I would love a green one!
Tina says
Every room needs a little black cat.
