shuddered

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'showed revulsion' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with motion as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'milk supplier in hut' is the wordplay.
'milk supplier' becomes 'udder' (I've seen this before).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'hut' becomes 'shed' (hut in a garden).
'udder' going into 'shed' is 'SHUDDERED'.

'finding' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for shuddered that I've seen before include "Trembled violently as with horror" , "Trembled, shivered" , "Did shake" .)
