Restrain pet (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

temper

This clue is a double definition.

'restrain' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'pet' is the second definition.
('pet' can mean a tantrum)

(Other definitions for temper that I've seen before include "Rage" , "Tendency to anger" , "Moderate; ill humour" , "State of mind as regards anger (6)" , "Moderate - mood" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
