smog

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'urban haze' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'small feline' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'feline' becomes 'mog' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
's'+'mog'='SMOG'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for smog that I've seen before include "Smoky fog" , "Pollutant fog" , "Fog and smoke mix" , "Fog polluted by smoke" , "Man-made atmospheric pollution" .)
