Our lid stays down. Hasn't been much of an issue with hubby or I. Just the way we were raised - put the lid down. With little kids around it's safer - fewer things end up in the toilet. With a cat - ours and any other housecat I've known seems to like toilet water - Don't even want to think about getting kitty kisses after... ICK!
We have had a couple incidents in which as was mentioned hubby made a trip at night and left it up and me in my bleary eyes state took the trip to the bathroom. I don't even turn on the light at night since my eyes don't adjust once again very easily and I'll inevitably trip over something on the way back to bed. So even with the night light in the bathroom I still don't aways get a good look.
From what I heard from a friend - that Feng Shui - an open toilet will drain energy from your home. Its just a habit for us to close the lid - if it works in other ways too - great.
