who use.. cinza or cinzento
In English is really easy. A grey ( cat, sofa,chair or whatever ) in Spanish also .. un,unos,una,unas, .. (anything ) gris or grises /pl. I don't get it in Portuguese( um gato cinzento em um sofá cinza) is sofá female? Is any kind of grammar rule for this?

First of all, sofa is masculine. Cinza and cinzento can be used for the same propose. Cinza means the color, cinzento means it has the grey color aspect. It's like yellow and yellowish.
Don't forget that cinza can be used for femine and masculine words, it's neutral. But cinzento is just for masculine words, you have to use cinzenta for femine.
