[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 🙂

    The style and colors of these cats just take me back in time, back to my Senior year in high school and getting married in ‘61. Fond for me. Starting my own house hold holds even more of the retro item memories. I am 75 and have to say it fast for that number changes on May 30, I would choose black or teal.. 🙂

    The orange kitty would be purrrfect on the floating hearth in my living room!

    These are awesome! Choosing a color is tough — do I want aqua to match my aqua boomerang kitchen counter, or orange for contrast? They are all spectacular!

    Greetings, love these vintage kitties, pink satin would be a lovely contrast to my mostly green decor. ?

    I have strived to be a total Middy, so everything in my home I want to be realistic. My kitty I have now is cute but I got it at a ceramics store closing up. It is not the awesome angular almost Siamese looking cat like a Bauer. I would love the orange. Classic

    How rad!!!! So glad they brought these back. I don’t know how you choose just one color. I’d start with white since I have white pottery in my entryway. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.

    Love Bauer pottery and have several cat
    fanatics in our mid-century house. A Bauer cat would be the perfect compliment to my other Bauer pottery and I am sure the real cat would not be too jealous.

    That aqua kitty would look awesome perched on my midcentury console! Hope my kitties would treat her nicely. Glad these are going to be available again!
