Press, as a cat does with its paws (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

knead

(Other definitions for knead that I've seen before include "Work dough or massage flesh" , "Manipulate" , "Work (dough/clay)" , "Work flour into dough manually" , "Massage - naked (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
