I would like to have a Cavalier & Fighter character & use boon companion. Has any one worked this out?

As far as I can tell, the cavalier's mount functions as a druid's animal companion. Therefore, "Boon Companion" should apply.

Boon Companion is worded a bit oddly, but the intent of the feat is similar to the "Natural Bond" feat from 3.5. Basically, you add 4 to your effective druid level, up to a maximum of your character level.

A Cavalier 1/Fighter 4 with Boon Companion would be treated as a Druid 5 for the purpose of the Animal Companion.

A Cavalier 1/Fighter 1 with Boon Companion would be treated as a Druid 2.

A Cavalier 2/Fighter 3 would be treated as a Druid 5.

A Cavalier 1/Fighter 8 would be treated as a Druid 5.

Hope that helps.

What type of feat is the Boon Companion? If it is not a combat feat neither a Fighter nor Cavalier could take it. Do I have this right?

Every character regardless of class gets a feat at every odd level. These can be any kind of feat. Many classes, including fighter, get combat bonus feats, which must be of the combat type.
