The cat is a relaxed and urbane creature that obviously lives in the city, and a cosmopolitan city at that.

It even looks a little mysterious and evil. I designed it together with my girlfriend.

Can I in good conscience suggest you watch this video? No. And yet- it is here.

13 minutes of almost completely unedited Mango action; mostly filmed during times that have almost nothing to do with mango, and featuring an absurdly disproportionate amount of Ian’s face.

May I present:
