Provide food for domestic pet (queen) (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cater

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

'domestic pet queen' is the wordplay.
'domestic pet' becomes 'cat'.
'queen' becomes 'ER' (abbreviation for Elizabeth Regina).
'cat'+'er'='CATER'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cater that I've seen before include "Provide goods or services for" , "... you'll see minister" , "Provide food etc" , "Provide service for like grocer" , "Trace (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
