They are attracted by both poles of the magnet simultaneously. So either they have two poles themselves, which makes them attractive, or are ferromagnetic, which makes them unattractive. We can conclude that without further research the question about their attractiveness can not be proven.
~~You mixed up ferromagnetism with diamagnetism~~
~~> Ferromagnetism is a property of certain materials (such as iron) that results in a significant, observable magnetic permeability, and in many cases, a significant magnetic coercivity, allowing the material to form a permanent magnet. Ferromagnetic materials are noticeably attracted to a magnet, which is a consequence of their substantial magnetic permeability.~~
~~https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism~~
~~> Diamagnetism is the property of materials that are repelled by a magnetic field; an applied magnetic field creates an induced magnetic field in them in the opposite direction, causing a repulsive force.~~
~~> Diamagnetism is a quantum mechanical effect that occurs in all materials; when it is the only contribution to the magnetism, the material is called diamagnetic.~~

~~Meaning that in both cases, they would be attractive.~~
Edit: I think I misunderstood what you wrote, sorry about that.
