Male cat (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tom

'male cat' is the definition.
(a male cat is called a tom)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tom that I've seen before include "Male feline" , "Hoyden" , "Very small person" , "type pursuing queen" , "Bell" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Daily Mail, The Times, the Evening Standard, The Telegraph, the USA Today, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Star Tribune, The Mirror, The Sun, the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
