Kitty accommodates English writer (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

poet

'writer' is the definition.
(poet is a kind of writer)

'kitty accommodates english' is the wordplay.
'kitty' becomes 'pot' ('pot' can be a synonym of 'kitty').
'accommodates' indicates putting letters inside.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'pot' placed around 'e' is 'POET'.

(Other definitions for poet that I've seen before include "Minstrel" , "Maker of verses" , "One writing verse" , "Writer such as Ogden Nash" , "author" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
