According to the question, we need to punctuate the following sentence,

'but the cat will run away Clem said again'

Firstly, punctuation refers to the use of symbols such as dots or periods, commas or question marks to divide written words into clauses and sentences. Various punctuation marks are used in English. They are period, question mark, exclamation mark, comma, colon, semicolon, a hyphen, a hyphen, brackets,  parentheses, apostrophe, quotation marks and ellipsis.​

Now, the meaning of the sentence seems to be that Clem reiterated that the cat will run away, after the negative word 'but'.

So putting the appropriate punctuation would be-

"But the cat will run away! " Clem said again.

The quotation marks are important because the statement is said by Clem in direct speech. The exclamation mark makes sense to the warning Clem puts forth.

And it should culminate with a full stop.

Hence, the answer is  

"But the cat will run away! " Clem said again.
