Rachel Riley, 33, put out a prompt call for help online and fortunately for the beauty her Twitter followers did not disappoint. In view of her 624,000 followers, the presenter shared a snap of red roses in a vase alongside two small kittens with a caption which read: “I’m having one of those days! (*weeks), (**years). “Need cat and/or dog pics to turn it around - sharpish! Don’t let me down people…”. It appeared this was the only cue her social media followers needed as they inundated the Channel 4 favourite with pictures of their adorable pets.
One user posted a snap of their cat, writing: “Meet Bubbles. S**t at maths, but really warmhearted.”
The blonde bombshell took the opportunity to reply to the funny message and tweeted: “Gorgeous!”
Another person posted a cute picture of their pet cat and said: “Incoming Clem Fandango, presenting her prized paper straw (because she's very environmentally conscious)”.
Rachel quipped: “Best name ever.”
While a third person shared a snap of their curly-haired cockapoo and said: “Fonzie says hope you have a good evening and hope this cheers u up!”(sic)
To which the former Strictly contestant replied: “Labradoodle? Beautiful boy whoever Fonzie is.”
