Default Timer valve to delay toilet refill?

Is there some sort of timer valve available, that would prevent the toilet
tank from refilling for, say, fifteen or twenty minutes after a flush?

Bidet!

Are you serious? Honestly -- how practical do you think it is to try to teach
an 87 year old with Alzheimer's to use a bidet?
