In English, you have the apostrophe; in French the construction is <article + object possessed + de + article + owner>
the boy's cat = le chat du garçon the girs's cat = le chat de la fille the boys' cat = le chat des garçons (note the "des" is a contraction of "de-les") the girls' cat = le chat des filles (same comment)
