Pet damaged her mast (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hamster

'pet' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'damaged her mast' is the wordplay.
'damaged' indicates an anagram.
'her'+'mast'='hermast'
'hermast' anagrammed gives 'HAMSTER'.

(Other definitions for hamster that I've seen before include "Small pet rodent with pouched cheeks" , "Animal" , "Common pet rodent" , "Pet rodent, may be golden" , "Rodent with large cheek pouches" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
