Questions & Answers about Unas correas tuyas están en la jaula.
Why do we say unas correas tuyas instead of putting tus before the noun?
Why does tuyas end in -as? Doesn't the ending depend on the person who owns it?
The ending actually depends on the thing that is owned, not the owner! Because correas is feminine and plural, the possessive adjective must match it, becoming tuyas. It belongs to "you" (singular), but the word itself changes to match the leashes.
I sometimes mix up ser and estar. Why do we use están in this sentence?
