Tool (4-3)

Ross

'tool' is the definition.
(both can mean a person used by another)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for cats-paw that I've seen before include "Person used to do something risky - with feline fool?" , "Person used by another to gain an end" , "Someone used by another" , "Dupe - nautical hitch - ripples on water in light wind" , "Person used by another for dangerous business" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
