The apostrophe 's is used to indicate possession (belonging to someone or something) or to contract words (such as "it is" becomes "it's"). For example: "Sarah's car" (possession) or "It's raining" (contraction of "it is").
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.
A plural possessive is a grammatical form used to show ownership or belonging of more than one person or thing to a particular noun. It is formed by adding an apostrophe after the plural noun ending in "s". For example, "The students' books" shows that the books belong to more than one student.
Forming possessive nouns or pronouns helps indicate ownership or relationship between the noun and something else. This can help clarify meaning or show possession in a sentence. It also adds specificity and precision to language.
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.

Apostrophes look like commas upside down and are used to help the reader understand what the writer is trying to say. There are rules on how they should be used, although today many people seem not to know or care about the rules.One place they are used is before the end 's' in a possessive word like cat's in the cat's paws. In this case we know there is only one cat being referred to. If the writer had written the cats' paws then we would know he's referring to all cats.Another place is in the word he's as in he's done it again. Here, the apostrophe indicates that a letter or letters have been left out. The sentence should really read he has done it again, but we shorten it and put an apostrophe in.Plurals do not have an apostrophe. e.g potatoes has no apostrophe, unless of course you are referring to something belonging to the potato, like its skin, in which case you say the potato's skin, or in the plural potatoes' skin.Words like its only have an apostrophe if you mean it is, rather than belonging to it.
