Unkempt person (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scruff

(Other definitions for scruff that I've seen before include "Tramp" , "Back of the neck, used to lift cat" , "Back of a cat's neck" , "Untidy person - nape of neck" , "One probably wouldn't wash" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the New York Times and The Times.
