Forever Knight Cat Stories is a 108-page Forever Knight gen anthology.
It is a collection of 28 stories including a round-robin. It contains no interior art but has many photos of fans' cats.
Working titles of this zine were "Forever Cat Tales" and "Gozerzine."
Three stories in Forever Cat Stories were nominated for a Fan Quality Award (Best Forever Knight Gen Story) at MediaWest*Con #17.
From the editorial: "The pages of this ’zine read like a Who’s Who of Forever Knight fan fiction. These are among the finest writers in the fandom, and it was a great pleasure to receive and read each wonderful story."
A Charity Zine
It was a charity zine, originally according to the publisher put together "to pay for an operation to fix the badly healed broken leg of a stray kitten Celeste took in, but the leg healed as he grew and he no longer needs the operation. Instead, the money will go to the Melrose Humane Society."
From the publisher:
None of the stories in this zine have ever been on the net; all of the stories are, in some way or other, cat-oriented. Proceeds from the sale of these zines will benefit a cat-related charity--originally it was meant to pay for an operation for Gozer, but he's fine now and the money is freed up to benefit other cats.
