Given new home? Animated, stifling surprised cry (8)
I believe the answer is:
rehoused
'given new home?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'animated stifling surprised cry' is the wordplay.
'animated' becomes 'roused'.
'stifling' indicates putting letters inside.
'surprised cry' becomes 'eh'.
'roused' placed around 'eh' is 'REHOUSED'.
(Other definitions for rehoused that I've seen before include "put in new shed?" , "given new home" , "Put in new place" .)
