招き猫とは
猫は農作物や蚕を食べるネズミを駆除するため、古くは養蚕の縁起物でもあったが、養蚕が衰退してからは主に商売繁盛の縁起物とされています。
右手（前脚）を挙げている猫は金運を招き、左手（前脚）を挙げている猫は人（客）を招くとされます。
一般的には三毛猫ですが現在は種類も増えており、諸説ありますが恋愛運（桃）や魔除け（黒）など、様々な意味を持つようになっています。
とにかく可愛い、縁起物です。

the cat raising the right hand (forepaw) causes luck with money, and the one raising the left hand invites a person (visitor).

何点か自分ならこうするなーと思った仔細なミスが見受けられましたので提案させていただきます。例えば最後の、Among a catalogue ですが、ここでは特定のカタログをさしていますので、the catalogue, または、our catalogue がふさわしいように思われます。また、「カタログ内の商品」をさしていますので、among the ones in the catalogue, あるいは、among the designs in the catalogue となります。 よろしくお願いいたします。
細かなご指摘ありがとうございます！勉強になります。
