I am reading the third book in the Pride of Chanur series http://www.sfreviews.net/chanurpride.html by C.J. Cherryh. The series http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chanur_novels has strong female characters. The women are the space ship captains and crew. They are an alien race that seem a little like large cats. The main character is Pyanfur Chanur. Their problems start when they pick up an earthman and save him from the Kif. This seems to create a lot of problems for the ship and the crew. But in each book they keep saving him. The first book in the series was nominated for a Hugo.
