Willowy cat? (5)
I believe the answer is:
pussy
This clue could be a double definition.
'willowy' is the first definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'cat?' is the second definition.
(I know that pussy is a type of house cat)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pussy that I've seen before include "Catkin tree" , "Kitten" , "Cat (colloq.)" , "Water down" , "chap thought to be weak" .)
