Tom Brady relented to his child’s desires.
On Wednesday, the 45-year-old retired quarterback published an Instagram story with 2 Siamese mix kittens with the captions “Vivi wins again” — describing Brady’s 10-year-old child, Vivian — and “This is what my mornings are like now. They are in good, loving hands.” Brady likewise tagged the Humane Society of Tampa, previous Bucs colleague Logan Ryan and Ryan’s better half Ashley Bragg Ryan.
After Brady retired following 23 years in the NFL, Bragg Ryan blogged about how the quarterback and his kids offered at the animal shelter with little excitement.
“I guess I’ll chime in with my Tom Brady story.. but it’s not the one about 7 Super Bowls or being down 28-3 or his last pass as a Patriot. We all know those,” she composed on Instagram. “It’s the one about the papa who offered at the animal shelter with his kids throughout a whole football season. The one where he bonded with his kids over identifying puppies and bottle feeding kittens. The one where he quietly appeared every other week to make a distinction for his family and his neighborhood. The one where 2 fathers simply got to be fathers and beamed with pride whenever their kids said ‘Please can we just stay a little bit longer?!’ The one where 2 little women constructed a relationship around their love of small infant kittens and did their part in making the world a much better location for animals.
“These pictures were from August and we didn’t take many more after that. Not publicly at least. It wasn’t about publicity, fundraising or recognition. It was about being a human being. It was about Tom taking the very thing his little girl loves the most and turning it into an opportunity to spend time together. It was about Tom reaching out to his friend, asking how to get involved, helping his community by giving something far more meaningful than money.. his time. Greatest QB of all time, no doubt. But I’m humbled most by the person you are off the field, TB! Congrats!”
A representative for the Tampa Humane Society told People that Vivian was especially drawn to these 2 kittens, which they connected to Brady to adopt them.
“Everyone at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay is very thankful that Tom Brady and his kids have been volunteering at our shelter for months,” Regan Blessinger, an authorities with the not-for-profit, informed the outlet. “From socializing our kittens to walking dogs, he is obviously a great dad and a true animal lover. When they came to volunteer, it was evident that Vivian and the whole Brady family enjoyed their time with the under-aged kittens still needing to be bottle-fed.”
