Hide the litter tray under a simple side table by covering it with a curtain. Simply loop a piece of material beneath the table top and allow it to hang down. You can even create a little entrance by hooking part of it open.

Fun playpens like this are always available for pets online.
Although the sheltered space underneath is often used as a bedding area, you can easily add a litter tray.

Make a little entrance in the base of a piece of furniture such as this laundry basket to camouflage its real purpose. Your bathroom is also a good place to hide a tray from guests and becomes the cat's own en suite.
