Certified Maryland Public School teacher here! Let's go over how to do this.

First, always go to the verb. The verb will tell you everything about the sentence.

The verb here is... you got it, hid!

Now you ask the question: who or what hid?

Cat! So that's your noun. Because only a person, place, or thing can do any hiding. (A noun is, as you know,a person, place, or thing.)

Now let's look for any adjectives. Ask ... what *kind* of cat hid?

Yep--scared. So scared is describing the cat and is an adjective.

Now go back to the verb hid... is there anything that gives us more info about hiding... where, when, how did the cat hide?

Aha! Under tells us where. So that's telling us about the verb and is adverbial.

BONUS: Under ... what? (Person, place, or thing). Bingo. You have your bonus noun.
