I have been able to pull YouTube image previews on my own site using their widely known image URLs like this:

http://img.youtube.com/vi/{VIDEO-URL}/0.jpg

Is there something similar for the new animated gifs found on the Youtube.com website?

Not supported yet. You can make a videos.list request and you can see that there's no gif there only jpgs.

This is also confirmed in this SO post.
