To be "furry" the animal would presumably have to be a mammal, although the term might loosely take in creatures with hairy feathers, such as the kiwi. Also, not all mammals have hair developed into "fur," such as cattle, horses and rex cats, all domesticated. Other mammals are neither furry nor domesticated, including hippos, whales and naked mole rats. Moreover, the lines between "wild" and "domesticated" AND those between "furry" and "not furry" can be fuzzy (that is, vague). In a very general way, an animal is furry if it or its ancestors lived in colder regions.
