Sometimes the strong scent of litter will keep bunny out of the box. Avoid pine and cedar shavings and clay cat litters. Also, try a handful of fresh hay in the box. This will usually entice Bunny to get into the box. Get your rabbit into a daily routine and try not to vary it.
Rabbits are very habitual and once a routine is established, they usually prefer to stick with it.
Routines make learning easier. Adapt to the stubborn bunny. If your rabbit is continually going in an opposite corner from his box, put his box in the area he has chosen, even if it means rearranging his cage or moving a table in the living room.
