The person who owns this site mentions the Wild Maus briefly in their recollection, and their name at the end of the quote is a mailto - perhaps you could ask them? There are a lot of old photos on the site, they may have more or know where you could get more.
You can see the Maus in the left of this photo by John DeMajo, including the logo and a very spiffy light-up cat perched over the entrance. The full page I got it on is here. One or two of the photos on the page are credited to the New Orleans Public Library; I'm not sure on the Katrina damage as I wasn't following news or much of anything at the time it happened, but if it's still around or they saved some/enough of their resources, they might have something.
Also, for the layout - layout number 2 is the layout for the Wild Maus ride at Palisades, which was supposed to be an exact replica of the Pontchartrain ride.
Additionally, you may be able to glean more information from this page than I could - it also includes a piece on the company that built/imported the Wild Maus at Pontchartrain as well as a few others, and lists the other parks that have/had the same model as Pontchartrain.
Sorry I can't be more helpful @.@ that's just a couple minutes of digging, there...
