- The "shop" featured in Bagpuss was in reality the rear of Peter Firmin's house. He decided it looked appropriate for the series and cast his daughter Emily as the girl in the monochrome introduction.
- The names of the six mice were: Charlie Mouse; Jenny Mouse; Janey Mouse; Lizzy Mouse; Eddie Mouse and Willy Mouse.
- The company behind Bagpuss, Smallfilms, also produced children's favourites The Clangers (UK), Ivor the Engine (UK) (1958) and Noggin the Nog (UK) (1959).
- Peter Firmin intended Bagpuss to be a striped marmalade (orange) cat but the company who wove the striped furry cloth had a manufacturing fault and used pink thread instead of orange. This is the origin of Bagpuss the pink striped cat.
