Answer
Dear Emily,

Unfortunately, sometimes when a bunny chooses a special corner as a toilet, sometimes the only thing you can do is to surrender and put a litterbox with good, healthy filler (e.g., pelleted sawdust) and some hay there so the carpet won't be ruined.

Spay/neuter will help, as will some of the tips here:

But it's often easier just to relent and let her have a litterbox in her favorite little spot. At least she's going in only one corner!  :)

Hope that helps.
