Girl bun rearranging litter tray?

Hi our girl bun often moves or empties the litter tray, does this mean she's unhappy or upset? The trays in the bedroom bit of their hutch, not ideal but whenever I try to move it they carry on using the bedroom as a toilet and the litter tray is unused. I've only seen the girl move it and it's definitely intentional. It often happens towards the end of the week when they're due for a clean out. Anyone else's buns do this and does it mean anything??? Thanks.

Our girl bunny does it purely for mischief with her tray and the cat trays (all outside the cage). I put wood pellets in her toilet corner (same as are in her tray) and she doesn't do anything with them other than toilet. Basically she's a big ball of mischief!

That's good to know. Ours gets really quite cross if you pop it back!! Tends to bite it and pull it back out again as if to say "what ARE you doing, messing my stuff up". She's definitely the brains/leader. The main thing is she's not trying to communicate something I don't understand.
