Pet's way in via Spooner's headgear (3,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cat flap

'pet's way in' is the definition.

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for cat flap that I've seen before include "Opening in door for pet" , "One admitting queen" , "cutting through doorway" , "Entry for pet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
