For a variety of reasons I would like to work our a feeding schedule so
my cat would be unlikely to have to "go" during night (say midnight to
sunrise).

How long after eating/drinking do cats tend to have to "go"?

They aren't machines. YOu'll never be able to control that any more than if
YOU have to go. Yes, we tend to get on a schedule, but you can't be sure.
Why on earth would you need that?

I don't mean 100% control, just minimize the chance.

Well, I still don't understand. I really don't think you can "control" that.

This is a wrong-headed approach. Keep the cat inside
at night and put a cat box in your house. If you want
something you have to let out every time it has to
go get a dog.
