Monday was hump day for Timothy Cardinal Dolan.

The Catholic leader oversaw the annual blessing of the animals for Radio City Music Hall’s Christmas Spectacular living Nativity — which included a camel who got particularly friendly with the man of the cloth.

“The camel was behind [the cardinal] a couple of times and was nudging him with his nose,’’ Joe Zwilling, spokesman for the Archdiocese of New York, told The Post.

“When you’re speaking and a camel starts to nibble at your ear, it can be a little … not what you normally expect. But [the cardinal] is perfectly at ease with the animals.

“He loves’’ the blessing, the rep added of Dolan. “It’s something he looks forward to every year.’’

Three camels, two sheep and a donkey were blessed in the ceremony, which occurred in front of the famed Manhattan site in Rockefeller Center and included four Rockettes.

The animals, which travel from a sanctuary by bus for shows, were marched from a side door on West 51st Street around to the front of Radio City for the ceremony, drawing several dozen tourists eager to snap photos of the unusual city sight.
