No. "Long-haired" isn't a pattern. It's the measurement. The hair on the cat and the man is long. I suppose you could also say that "haired" comes under "material"!
 
Would "fluffy" or "furry" be adjectives of material?
 
Both "fluffy" and "furry" have to do with appearance.
 
I have a long-haired Siamese cat.

Both 'long-haired' and 'Siamese' are adjectives of type—in the case of a cat, a particular breed/variety.

Would "fluffy" or "furry" be adjectives of material?

In what context? To describe a cat? Give us the sentence you're thinking of.
