Chap covered in feline spit rejected esteem for idle kitty? (7,7)
I believe the answer is:
dormant account
'chap covered in feline spit rejected esteem' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'idle kitty?' is the wordplay.
'idle' becomes 'dormant' (I've seen this in another clue).
'kitty?' becomes 'account' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'dormant'+'account'='DORMANT ACCOUNT'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
