While most of my personal annoyances were addressed, let us please remember that PLURALS DO NOT TAKE APOSTROPHES!!

It is not dog's or cat's unless they own it. If you're talking about more than one of something, it's simply "dogs" and "cats" (for example).

If it's hers, then so be it. Matter of fact, many of those webcam sites might be hers. (Note that there is no apostrophe used here. The English language is daffy.)

If it's got something of its own, it uses no apostrophe. However, it's confusing when you're conjoining it and is. (Apostrophe needed to conjoin it and is, making it's. There is no apostrophe for the possesive of it....or the plural of it.)

"Never end a sentence a preposition with." Used that line for a paper in one of my English classes once. The instructor loved it. However, ending a sentence with a proposition could be fun.

Thank you and good day.
