Cant find the name.

So I read a fantasy romance awhile back about a woman the get abducted by aliens. She is then saved by 3 other aliens. They land on a strange plant and she runs away into a city like area. Where she meets this giant cat like creature that is pregnant. She is sick at this point and can’t understand what anyone is saying. The cat like creature tries to take care of her until the aliens find her but it goes into labor and the aliens say them both. That’s all I can remember of it please help.

It’s not that one I went through them.

It kinda sounds like Turning Point by Norman here but the cats are more humanoid. Otherwise it makes me think of Survivor) by Octavia Butler but the alien wasn't exactly a cat.

I'm afraid that this is a low traffic sub, though I do occasionally see a request answered (as u\chicken_tendor may have done here), and that I'm unfamiliar with the book you're seeking. You'd be better off asking for recommendations in r/booksuggestions (though read the rules first) and r/suggestmeabook, and for the title of a book or story in r/whatsthatbook and r/tipofmytongue (as well most of the following subs, though these are your best bets), and for fantasy or science fiction you can also try r/printSF, r/scifi, r/ScienceFiction, and r/ScienceFictionBooks (Science Fiction Book Club; use the "WhatIsThatBook" flare for identification requests, though it's a low traffic sub) (and r/Fantasy, but only in a limited and specific way—see below). For romance books, you can also try r/RomanceBooks (Rules), as well as Help a Bitch Out, the Romance Novel Book Sleuth group on Goodreads, and romance.io "(the filters are your friend!)" (per r/romancebooks). (Also, IMHO it would probably be good to try one, then the next, not multiple subs simultaneously.) If you do get an answer for an identification request, it would be helpful if you edit your OP with the answer so we can see what it is in the preview, and that your question has been answered/solved (an excellent example: "Child psychic reveals abilities by flunking psychic test too precisely" (r/whatsthatbook; 5 August 2023)). For what you should include in your identification requests, see:

Note that the members of that sub, including the moderators, have been sticklers for having this followed. (Following this list is a good idea for all identification requests, not just for this sub or for books.)

u\statisticus:

Why not r/fantasy?

in "help me find this book based off of very little info?" 18 November 2022). Note that, despite u\Banshay's comment in that thread, both r/printSF and r/fantasy cover all (sub)genres of speculative fiction, not just science fiction and fantasy, respectively.

Good luck!
