Answer:  SANTA “CLAWS”

(It looks like Tootie is ready to scootie!  If Hoyt is smart, he’ll just get the heck out of the way!  Pretty predictable, but a little holiday silliness never hurt anyone!  Right?  None of the clue words were new today, but there was some interesting jumblings.  I liked both “magnet” and “closet”.  The answer letter layout was fine, but with the little suit on that not so happy cat, and the quotation marks in the answer, it didn’t take an Einstein to figure things out.  Be well and do good, friends.  Merry Christmas!)   —   YUR
