Well, first of all, make the cage a pleasant place to be for the rabbit. If the cage is a bad experience for her, then she won't want to be in it.
When you fell it's time for your rabbit to be put back in the cage, try using a special treat to lure her into the cage. If you have to pick her up, then bring her toward you and pet her, talk to her softly, do anything you can to make her feel relaxed and safe (I suggest rubbing the sides of the jaw, it always works for my rabbits). Then gently and slowly pick her up and place her in the cage. Then give her a treat to associate the cage with positive things.
Getting my old rabbit in his cage was always a cinch. We fed him at the same time every day, and the food in his dish would make a rattling sound. So when he had to go back into his cage, we would just put it on the ground, open the side door, and either tap the bowl with a fingernail or put a few oats in it. He would hear it and be in in a flash! See if you can develop an association like that with your rabbit.

∙ 14y agoTry to close off as many escape routes as possible. Close doors and windows. If your bird's cage has multiple doors, open all of them. Put your bird's favorite treat (a millet spray is very temping and big enough to be eye-catching) just inside the door to lure them inside. Most birds will get tired, bored, or hungry and go back to their cages after an hour or so. Don't try to chase it or catch it, you'll just make it more scared of you and the bird might hurt itself trying to get away. A tame bird is much easier to get back inside its cage. With patience, you can even train a bird to go back to its cage on command (some people use "bedtime" or "go home").

∙ 13y agoThis is what you do:
- Open up the cage
- (This is the hard part) Take the Bird in your hands
- Now slowly move both hands towards the cage oppening, if the bird starts struggling, smother it with a snuggie
- Put the bird in the cage
- Close the cage
- Throw it into a bathtub, filled with water, and let it drown
- For some extra fun, toss a toster or a hair dryer, into the bathtub
