Vinyl Sheet flooring?

I was given some sheet vinyl flooring that I will be lining my rabbit cage with. But I was wondering if I can also use it in my gecko cage. It won't be very pretty but is there any other reason I shouldnt use it?

Not to be well...a jerk. Sans having cash. You have been directed to Tile or Duck Brand Shelf Liner...

Why chance it?
 
How is it a chance to ask a question? Others may be using it or have used it. I am having trouble getting tile or shelf liner ( well the taupe liner) so I thought while I work out getting that maybe I can use this. If it wont work I will stick to paper towels.
 
Well thats not accurate I can't find the size I need with the buying option I need for the Shelf liner.

For the tile ... I just can't have it cut to size like I need ( I would have to order it shipped to my house) so thats pretty much eliminates that.

I ask questions for a reason and I don't appreciate the rude answers... Its not your way or its horrible...

I know and I'm just saying. You can cut shelf liner to a point where it meets perfectly. I believe it can be done with tile. Vinyl may not be the best choice. I would research its properties, melting point, etc..before using it.

You can line your enclosure with old 45's for all I care. Just be careful.

The TILE is what I can't have cut to size.

The shelf liner I am having trouble finding a 20"x6 ' roll that will let me use paypals pay after delivery as I am a babysitter and rarely get to the bank to put in cash. Its not a shortage of funds, just none is in my bank.

I have been there. Use paper towel till you can get the logistics figured and funds appropriated. I am moving tomarrow. How much is roll you need? I could applyvit to expenses.

Its called Zakat in Islam and I have no problem helping.

What about islam? I am confused.

I will need enough for a 24x18 terrarium, not much. Since the 18x18 is a temporary upgrade. Its free It would be silly to pay for a temporary upgrade.

I too have been wondering about using sheet vinyl (I've some left over from when I redid the kitchen). I know you have to be careful of ones with glue on the back, as the glue can create fumes when it's warm, but not seen anything yet about ones with no glue.

Hope someone can answer this one.
 
that's not really helpful we are trying to figure out if something is safe and you are making up every excuse for us to only do things your way ... This is why people rebel and do whatever they want.

Indeed, we're not necessarily talking about tiles - mine originally comes from a roll in the carpet shop. Mine's intended for use in a kitchen or bathroom - not slick - that would be so dangerous. There's texture to it, and because it's slightly soft, there'd be better grip than on, say, textured tiles.
