It's not dangerous, it's just because it's slippy (like tiles and floor panelling) some pigs won't like it. They much prefer something like carpet where they can get a good grip with their paws and move at speed without skidding!

See how your pigs do on it - some don't seem to mind it and you can always put some old bath sheets down if they don't like it.

my linoleum is textured, so when i come out of the shower, i don't slip. Does this make a difference?

no hard feelings, My Baby Mu, but can you fix the grammar of your post. I could not understand what you said!
