[Where can I find the Uchi Felis avatar inworld?]

I was told that the Uchi Felis avatar can only be found inworld, but I'm not having any luck finding it. What shop would i go to?

[First time modder needing help]

Okay. I'm trying to get into SL, mostly because of how unique and creative you can be with the avatars. But I'm having trouble .

I'm not in a position to buy Lindens right now, simply do not have any money to spend on it. I know, from a friend of mine that's a modder, that you can find a lot of good avis for free as a good beginners avatar. I'm having trouble finding these free avis, though. 

Basic idea is that I want to be some variation of a cat, not too complicated right now until I get more used to the controls. I would prefer the skin to be black, somewhat curvy. Not asking for anyone to mod it for me, or even show me how, but just point me towards something I can use for now. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm getting frustrated with searching and all that.
