Miranda keeps having set backs with the toilet training, she was doing really well only doing it in her cage but recently she's been having little accidents outside, seen puppy pads that say they smell to encourage pet to use them and wondered has anyone used them and would the be safe for her?

Would imagine the smell is probably more aimed at dogs and cats rather than rabbits so dono if it would work? Does she go in any particular place?
We got the regular ones for bonding MJ and Philip, still keep one in the pen on this cushion that Philip always pees on (it is RIGHT next to the litter tray! Rolling Eyes )

When she was in the bathroom shed still use her cage but then started peeing everywhere, so started shutting the cage and that was fine she learned to do it in the cage then a week later back to peeing g all over the floor.
Now she beside soundwave she has peed in hall, living room and dining area but last few days she has been using her cage. She has a thing about spreading her carefresh and hay all over her cage, did briefly think maybe should fill her entire cage with it incase it comfort thing.

Could very possibly be a combination of being near Soundwave but not permanently living with him and her not being spayed.
Hopefully things will settle once she's spayed and they can live together.

Temperance went through a phase of pee'ing outside of her litter tray (specifically on or near me). When she got MJ it stopped immediately.

Yes, I would guess it's a "doe" thing. She's also probably still aware of the scent of Soundwave's male hormones, which may still be present though he is neutered; they will be fading slowly.
And the bonding is still in progress.
Once she is spayed and the bonding is complete she will settle down.
Training pads are aimed at dogs and cats... their scent isn't exactly rabbit friendly though sprinkling some of her soiled litter on them might help.
