Abstract
A urine shield selectively coupled to a hinge, the hinge connected to a toilet seat or other toilet structure so that the shield hangs down and pivots at the hinge. When the seat or lid is raised, the shield naturally rests against the back of the toilet bowl to guide itinerant urine into the toilet bowl. The hinge coupling the shield to the seat or lid is selectively removable to permit easy access for cleaning. Accessories can be included such as a light to guide a user's aim in the dark.
