For your information: "its" does not have an apostrophe except when it is
an abbreviation for "it is" or "it has". Not when, like here, it is simply
a possessive. Anymore than you would put an apostrophe in other possessive
pronouns like "hi's" or "her's" or "your's" - there is no apostrophe in
pronouns.

Regards,

Ward
