If there are multiple bowls, you would say:
The cat bowls are on the floor.
If there is one cat bowl, you would say:
The cat's bowl is on the floor.
The correct placement of the apostrophe in the sentence should be: "The cat's bowls are on the floor." The apostrophe indicates possession by showing that the bowls belong to the cat.
An apostrophe used after the letter S at the end of the word generally means it is a plural possessive, such as "cats' meow" which is basically referring the meow to all of the cats (plural).Sometimes, however, some words will end in an S without being a plural, such as names, but the apostrophe still indicates that it is possessive. For example "James' notebook" which is saying that the notebook belongs to a singular James.
If an apostrophe is after the "s" in a word, it typically indicates possession or ownership by multiple people or things. For example, "teachers'" means something belongs to multiple teachers.
You put it before the s if the following thing belongs to that word. If their are multiples of that word, the s goes at the end. EXAMPLE (ONE cat): That is the white cat's toy. EXAMPLE (MULTIPLE cats): Those are the white, brown, and black cats' toys.
To form the singular possessive, add an apostrophe and "s" to the singular noun (e.g., cat's toy). For plural possessive nouns, add an apostrophe after the "s" of the plural noun (e.g., cats' toys for toys belonging to multiple cats).
The apostrophe is used to identify possessive nouns as separate from plural nouns, for example, the possessive boss's and the plural bosses (both are pronounced the same).Examples:A cat chased a dog into the woods. (singular, one cat)The cat's owner chased a dog into the woods. (singular possessive, the owner of one cat)Two cats chased a dog into the woods. (plural, two cats)The two cats' owner chased a dog into the woods. (plural possessive, the owner of the two cats)Note: There is no apostrophe in the possessive pronouns his, hers and its, ours, yours and theirs.
if you say that is the cat's ball - then it does, as the ball belongs to the cat however if you say there are seven cats - then it doesnt as it's is plural

There are two occasions where an apostrophe would be used. Singular possessive: This is where you are referring to something belonging to one cat. The apostrophe comes before the 's'. For example, the cat's milk. Plural possessive: This is where you are referring to something belonging to more than one cat. The apostrophe comes after the 's'. For example, the cats' milk.
No because the apostrophe doesn't belong. It is plural so no apostrophe is needed
cat poo
No, the possessive (with the apostrophe) is used with "cats", since they possess the tails. The sentence should be, "I pulled two cats' tails."
