Thundercats have been on my to-do list for a long time now. Can't promise a release date, but I will have them all available eventually. Sorry I can't give a definite time. So many projects, so few clones.
To answer your other question, about the right forum, this isn't necessarily the best forum to make product requests. There is a Products Wanted forum in the Classifieds section. This one is more suited to how-to questions.

Welcome to Second Life!
You may also want to look at some of the existing Furry Avatars that are already available. While not specificly the Thundercats, there are quite a few good felines already available. I'd recommend looking at Jakkal's Werehouse, in Bruin. I am sure there are many others, but in my own opinion her avatars rock. I have her white wolf and her red fox, and am quite happy with both. Chosen Few, above, also makes skins that are fantastic.
From the standpoint of this thread, you could make your own skins, if you have sufficient skill in Photoshop. Download the avatar templates from the support section of this site, make your lower body, upper body and head textures, and then import them as .tga files. Right-click your Avatar, select Appearance, select the head and body taba, and apply these textures to the 'tattoo' layer on your Avatar. That is how the skin for most furry avatars is applied.
To get a tail and feline ears and feline facial features requires adding parts made of prims, and positioned and textured to blend in with the base fur. Avatar makers have made quite an art of this. It is not a task for the casual user, but can certainly be learned.
