English term or phrase: cattle that'd take to linoleum

En una escena de una pelicula, el protagonista mira con dos personas más un campo para ganado. Compara el precio del campo con el del linóleo por pie cuadrado y dice:

One shilling and six pence a square foot [the price of linoleum]
That's more than that field down there.
And linoleum wears out.
You'd have to go a long way before you'd find cattle that'd take to linoleum.

ganado a los cuales les gustara el linóleo

Explanation:
To take to en inglés significa que algo le guste a alguien...si digo, I met a guy and I took to him right away, significa que conocí a un tipo y enseguida me gustó.

¡Espero que esto te ayude!
