From "magicians of Caprona". The Benvenuto cat's description He wasn't what we would can call a lovely cat. His head was strangely big and flat, covered by rough grayish stains, memory of countless battles. And (other memory of the same battles) the ears were bend forward on the front like ragged brown hood: a hundred bites made it indented like a holly. Italiano: Non era quel che si dice un bel gatto. La sua testa era stranamente grossa e schiacciata e coperta da ruvide chiazze grigiastre, ricordo d'innumerevoli battaglie. E(altro ricordo delle stesse battaglie) le orecchie gli si ripiegavano in avanti sulla fronte come uno sbrindellato cappuccio dentellato marrone: un centinaio di morsi le avevano rese dentellate come agrifoglio.

From "magicians of Caprona". The Benvenuto cat's description

He wasn't what we would can call a lovely cat. His head was strangely big and flat, covered by rough grayish stains, memory of countless battles. [memory ricordo = memory, ok, but also "souvenir" - which I think is the idea hereof countless battles.] And (other memory of the same battles) the ears were bend BENT forward on the front  [wouldn't 'sulla fronte' here mean 'on its' forehead'?] like ragged brown hood: a hundred bites made it indented like a holly. {this is just an image that doesn't work well in English, I think, but I don't have an alternative. It would take an experienced and creative translator - we'll see what iTalkians come up with!}

And (other memory reminder of the same battles) the his ears were bend bent forwards on the front his forehead like a ragged brown hood: a hundred bites made it indented had left them as serrated as a holly leaves.
