Zoe Viccaji

When Zoe Viccaji was a child, she adopted a stray puppy. The dog, who was named Teddy, became a beloved family pet. His death, over a decade later, inspired her to write her first song, ‘Angel’. Since then, the singer – seen here hanging out with a penguin in South Africa – has used her profile to shed light on the plight of stray and neglected animals.
