Black cat seen in Spring (6)

I believe the answer is:

bounce

(Other definitions for bounce that I've seen before include "Rebound (like a cheque)" , "Of a cheque, send back as worthless" , "What a cheque may do if there are insufficient funds" , "Spring back; resilience" , "Hop like rubber ball" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
