Possessive "s" の
This is another nice thing about Japanese.
To show relationship or possession between two things just put a の no between them. The trick is knowing (erm... のing) which goes to the left of the no and which goes to the right...
Think of の as a 's (apostrophe S)

わたし の ねこ watashi no neko My cat [I's cat] |

日本 の 車 nihon no kuruma Japanese car [Japan's car] |

ねこ の おもちゃ neko no omocha Cat's toy |
Also think of:
わたしの watashino as "my" and
あなたの anatano as "your"
