Crossword Genius

Feline in pool? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kitty

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'feline' is the first definition.
(kitty is a kind of feline)

'pool?' is the second definition.
(both can mean a shared fund)

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for kitty that I've seen before include "Girl's name -- pooled money" , "Pool of money - how Anne Frank addressed her diary" , "Collection of money" , "Communal fund" , "Tom's mate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
