I had my kitchen redone about three years ago with a product called Marmoleum.  I have attached the link to the site.  This is a durable tile that is essentially cork--or soft wood backed but covered with a strong resin top.  I LOVE it!  It is most certainly much softer than wood and you can get many colors.  They are large tiles that click together.  I have three dogs and it has held up fine with them.  I think it is the benefit of a cork floor without the worry about the durability.  So far so good with my floors.
