Like a mouse (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

timid

'like a mouse' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for timid that I've seen before include "Gutless" , "Pusillanimous" , "Lacking in courage" , "Shrinking" , "doormat" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily and the New York Times.
