I think you mean "animation" to be the same as "cartoon" (that is a noun)

A cartoon is a usually a single humourous drawing. When there are several such drawings put side-by-side then this is called a cartoon strip.

An animation is a series of cartoon drawings that differ from each other in a very small way. When shown one at a time very fast, the subject of the drawing appears to be in motion.

Ninja Turtles could be a cartoon if there was a single drawing

Ninja Turtles could be an animation if you are referring to a movie (there are several such movies)

A television show based on the Ninja Turtles could also be called an animated cartoon or often it is just described as a cartoon for short.

I hope this helps you.
