One way to do it, especially if the plot is clearly happening in America, is to insert English words into the Italian subtitle. It may be helpful if your subtitling system supports italics or another way to emphasize a part of the text.
Something like:
C-A-T, cat (gatto)
or
Il gatto - a cat, scriviamo C-A-T
