Couldn't agree more, my Uncle manages a branch of Cats Protection, his currently has a back log of over 400 cats waiting to be taken in. They have around 40 pens.
By fostering or adopting from these places, it gives other cats a chance.

Lula, who was quite bitey when we got her is now settling down. From what I researched a stern 'no!' Along with pointing or a clap of hands & then walking away giving no affection for 5-10 minutes, makes them realise that their behaviour isn't going to get them what they want. We've now got to the point where if Lula does bite, she knows she's done wrong so stops herself going too far.
Should be easier to train out of a kitten. There is quite a lot of advice if you Google 'how to stop my cat biting', including how to stop them clawing & biting you when they play. Good luck, & thank you for the fostering, it's a good thing you're doing.
