Cared (6)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
minded
'cared' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for minded that I've seen before include "See 1 Across" , "Took care of" , "Cared" , "Determined; objected to" , "Looked after" .)
