Where a piglet may be taken to get warm (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toasty

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

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

'where a piglet may be taken to' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'a' is found in the answer.
'to' is within the answer.
The remaining letters 'sty' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'get' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for toasty that I've seen before include "Pleasantly warm" , "Sandwich" , "snack" , "Cosily warm" , "Hot food" .)
