Secure home for animal (6)
I believe the answer is:
stable
'secure' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stable that I've seen before include "Firm - building for animals" , "It might accommodate Arab" , "Not wobbly" , "Constant - place for horses" , "Steady, constant" .)
