COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- There just enough time to shop before Christmas, and officials at a Columbia animal shelter say they have the perfect furry gifts.

Columbia Animal Services is holding special hours Thursday and Friday for last-minute pet adoptions.

Organizers say the shelter is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Shelter officials encourage parents to bring their children to make sure the family picks out a pet that's just right for everyone.
