Your priority will be the lack of light unless you want to add grow lights or fluorescent lights in the bathroom. You can check the link below to see if they are safe for cats. These articles should help:

Of those, the zizi plant, snake plant, and cast iron will be the lowest light. Zizi plant, however, is very toxic to cats.
