Ich kenne.
I put "cats are beasts" and was counted wrong. I'm not sure if I should complain about that. My cat was crawling all over me when I typed it
If a noun doesn't already end in an "e" USUALLY the plural form just adds an "e" to the end. Similar to how in English we usually just add an "s".
Nouns that already end in "e" can't really have another "e" added to it, so an "n" and sometimes "r" is added to it
This is justa general rule of thumb though. There are always some exceptions to these rules.

Because "ist" is the singular third person form. One cat needs "ist". More than one cat, and you have to use the plural third person form: cats need "sind".

The "r" sound is made at the back of the throat, but don't fully close the throat - that makes the "g" sound that you think you are hearing.

Put your tongue in the same position as if you were saying "g", but don't close the gap completely - let some air through.
