For a start, it doesn't look very big, Dave certainly wouldn't get more than a back leg in there! What about the noise it makes? Would probably take a long time for some cats to even go near the thing let alone anything else.
As for the odour extraction, what about the odour that will escape through the blinking big doorless entrance
I'll stick with my hooded tray and Cats Best, no odours in my house most of the time.
