Slow cattle run around (9)
I believe the answer is:
reluctant
'slow' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'cattle run around' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cattle'+'run'='cattlerun'
'cattlerun' is an anagram of 'RELUCTANT'.
(Other definitions for reluctant that I've seen before include "not being willing" , "Unwilling to do something" , "Hesitant, disinclined" , "Not wishing to" , "Unwilling, hesitant" .)
