Tabitha abandoned natural home (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

habitat

'natural home' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'tabitha abandoned' is the wordplay.
'abandoned' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tabitha' with letters rearranged gives 'HABITAT'.

(Other definitions for habitat that I've seen before include "Environment in which an organism normally lives" , "place haunted" , "Bath at 1? (anag)" , "Natural home of wildlife" , "(Organism's) natural home" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
