Neuter cat, say — you'll get a scrap! (7)
I believe the answer is:
snippet
'a scrap' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'neuter cat' is the wordplay.
'neuter' becomes 'snip'.
'cat' becomes 'pet' (cat is an example of a pet).
'snip'+'pet'='SNIPPET'
'say you'll get' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for snippet that I've seen before include "piece of information" , "A small piece cut off" , "Bit (of info?)" , "Short extract" , "Fair --, knitwear style" .)
