Smallest of the Chinese zodiac animals (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rat

(Other definitions for rat that I've seen before include "Rodent; traitor" , "Renegade" , "one who deserts the sinking ship?" , "Betray like a rodent" , "Despicable person" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
