   Lounging among the silk hydrangeas in a wicker planter was one of Humphrey's favorite pastimes. Of course, it didn't do much for the hydrangeas, but what did he care. From the time we adopted him at five weeks of age, he was an explorer and getting into all sorts of things he shouldn't - that he was born on April 1 was no mistake! A master at opening doors, we could never shut a closet without checking first to make sure he wasn't hiding in a corner. For such a big cat (15 pounds) Humphrey was a scaredy cat. At the first clap of thunder, he ran for the nearest bathroom sink where he curled up until the storm was over. He also could hear the garage door open from the opposite end of the house and would be waiting to greet us. Humph, as he was affectionately known, died in March, three weeks shy of his 11th birthday.
