Default I have green tree frogs in my toilet that I have been putting in the garden -?

I would like to know what I could put in the garden that would keep them safe from preditors - I have lace monitors -cats etc visiting - I have a pond a few rocks -the garden is small and has not developed yet so I am hoping someone out there will have some experience in this matter.
I live in broome w.a. australia -thats in the kimberlys just beautiful - everyone has frogs in there toilet up here or nearly you probably don't if you throw chemicals into the water - I am not sure whether I should leave them in the loo or take them out - it is wet season here now and they will want to mate but that is another answer I need to know.
This is what I think but I am guessing - when they are small they leave the pond and get into the drain through the grate - they are protected there and all sorts of insects find their way down the drain - apparently they grow quickley so they would never get back through the grate so they must find their way up through the drains looking for a way out now they are ready to mate - they probably follow the light - must remember to close the toilet lid - now for the pooey bit - they get right up under the lip of the bowl and you haven't a clue they are there until you flush - then they hold on for grim death their little legs scrambling against the force of the water - I am pleased to say I have not seen one lose the battle and land in the poo
