I saw Cecil Turtle (Looney Tunes) with an aircraft engine in his shell.

Skilpadde is the Norwegian word for turtle.

En skilpadde - skilpadden - skilpadder - skilpaddene

There are several words for ghost:

spøkelse (the most commonly used word for ghost)
gjenganger
gjenferd
draug (usually used about those who died at sea)

You're too unique to have a doppelganger, Kuraudo!

you're welcome, Kyle :)

Skitty, cat would be katt (or sometimes katte, although that will often imply not liking it, though sometimes it's merely regional dialect difference)

en katt - katten - katter - kattene

(ei katte - katta - plural the same as above)

gjenganger may sound similar to doppelganger, but doppelganger is actually called dobbeltgjenger here

Glad you liked it :) Pussycat actually has 2 words in Norwegian, by the way: kattepus, pusekatt. short form is pus (pronounced poos, rhymes with ooze)
