"Whose" is a question of possession.
"Who's" is a contraction for "Who is".
Examples:
Q: Whose cat is sitting on the post?
A: That is my cat.
Q: Who's that cat sitting on the post?
A: That cat is Mimi.
Mimi, whose origin is unknown, was a stray given to me by the owners of the feed store. She is a small cat who possesses a large personality, as expressed in her role as self-appointed spokesperson for the housecats.
