The best reason to close your toilet lid, in my opinion, is you are 99% less likely to ever drop anything into the bowl. I’ve accidentally knocked TP rolls in several times, and the phone once or twice, and probably other stuff. Ever since I started closing the lid habitually I realized I havent dropped anything into the bowl in a long time.

I remember at work years ago hearing a little scream from the bathroom and it was because someone dropped the roll in and didn’t know what to do.

Lid’s always closed at home - I have a cupboard above the toilet that’s full of stuff likely to fall.

Not to mention cats knocking jewelry and phones in for a laugh.
And your cat isn’t going to drink from it.
