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 USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, The Mirror, The Sun, the Sydney Morning Herald, The New York Times, The Star Tribune, The Times, The Telegraph, The Daily Mail and the Evening Standard.
