Here's what I would suggest. And keep in mind, like women, all cats are different.

If your cat's 2 years old, I believe it's too late to start toilet training... However, I just looked this up and apparently I'm wrong. Here's a toilet training kit if you're interested! http://www.citikitty.com/

I vaguely remember my cat having issues whenever I moved or changed her box and what I've always done is lifted her up and gently dropped her in a clean, freshly changed litter box myself. It's kinda like me saying "it's ok, this is your new lady's room". She initially runs away but then slowly walks back on her own. I don't know about other cats by mine seems to have a built in radar for a clean litter box.

Another thing that I've done is placed her box inside a closet and added a curtain divider. That worked out well since I didn't have to see it and I like to believe that she appreciated the privacy as well.

I'm currently using a pet cabinet (google images with 'pet cabinet' for more ideas) which I absolutely love. I've placed it in my bathroom just like this picture shows: http://www.muttropolis.com/products2.cfm/id/6694/name/Cat-Washroom-Cabinet-Litterbox-Cover:-Espresso#

I like it because it provides me with extra surface area for a candle or plant while it totally blends in. If your bathroom is too small, you could easily place it in any other room as faux furniture/litter box in disguise.

According to this website, it's going for $140 but I bought mine from a local Linens 'n Things store which was going out of business for $40.
