The TV presenter posted on social media that she had come across an injured kitten (now named Rose) on a main road that people were driving over.

"Picked up this poor angel on the motorway roundabout with cars literally driving over her. She couldn't move and it looked like her back legs were broken," she said in her social media post.

"Googled Tralee vets. Rang one who refused to take her. Then rang Abbey Veterinary Centre on Church St who told me to bring her in.

"She peed all over my Rose of Tralee Festival briefs on the way there but vet Deirdre Cremins, the angel that she is, thinks she has a chance.

"All the staff were so lovely as I had to run but said they’d keep me updated. We all called her Rose. I’m not able #PrayForRose"

The Rose Of Tralee airs on RTÉ One this Monday and Tuesday evening.
