Either go to Wotsit (http://www.wotsit.org) and check the fileformat for GIFs, or download a third party library to load the files for you. Don't know of any libraries that handle GIFs though.

Due to some copyright issues, not much support of GIF loading.
You may find that using TGA format is a better choice since it is very well supported and lot's of examples of loading TGA.

I think if you want a animated texture, then use muliple images to create the animation. This would be the easy way, then you just change the texture to simulate animation.
