I believe the answer is:. classify the hamster as a "furry.".

During the period when children still haven't understand the meaning of certain words, they tend to rely on the description made by older people on an object as the word for that object. In the scenario, the 'object' that described by the adult is the hamster and associated it with the word furry.
