One's content to share cat and dog (4)

-ONG

Mong . Mog = cat and 'n' = and (fish n chips, rock n roll etc).

Sorry, and Dog is the definition - Mong, mongrel.

Thanks - but it's difficult to read clue in suggested way: I'll be looking to see what people think of it in TfTT!

The N is surely “One’s content”, that is, “one” without the first and last letters.

Thanks, Wintonian, that sounds much better! I didn't parse it for myself when I did the puzzle earlier - I simply checked that 'mong/mongrel' existed. I should keep myself away from parsing.

The wordplay indicates that N ("one's content", ie the letter 'inside' ONE) is to 'share' ('cut, cleave') MOG ('cat'), and the definition is 'dog'.
