Answer: A. were starting to think the cat had gotten her tongue

Explanation:

An idiom is a sentence whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal meanings of each word. The idiom "has the cat got your tongue?" is well-known and it is a question usually asked to someone who is silent and refuses to speak even when addressed.

Other famous idioms are:

to beat around the bush

to cut someone a slack

to pull somebody's leg

to be under the weather
