Yes you should spend your first feat on Extra revelation and take the animal companion at level 1. then you can take the favored bonus at lvl 1 to beef up your animal companion.
also how are you getting a large cat? PFS rules do not allow it I thought.
What curse? I am a big fan of dual cursed due to the misfortune and fortune abilities.
Well, for some reason most classes except the druid are limited to certain pets. Nature oracle is only camel or horse if your medium. There's a feat for exotic mounts if I remember right.
It makes sense. Its the logic used to for the revelation that doesn't. You could ride a large cat around battle and it would be awesome. Pretty sure thats a thing in warcraft... but in game someone who is medium sized with a mount feature has to use a camel or horse unless they have something to change it.
Beastrider for cavalier changes the mount that it gets for instance. And I could've sworn there was some sort of exotic mount feat somwehere.
Kind of, only if your DM lets you use a cat. In a PFS game though that won't fly.
As far as I know the only way to open up a different mount for a Nature Oracle is to get a boon from a certain chronicle sheet. I believe it is an Axe-beak.
Medium sized nature Oracles have access to a horse or a camel. That is all.
XD. its not an uncommon houserule to say otherwise, and the pets for medium aren't bad at all. So don't worry, I'm sure plenty of GMs would be more than happy to have mittens at the table.
I would say that the current gold standard of "Aasimar Oracle with Companion" is Huntsmaster at level 1, Celestial Servant at level 3.
At level 2, your horse has 30 Hp, AC 17 before you add anything, and attacks at +6,1d4+7//+6,1d6+7//+6,1d6+7. Also has the Narrow Frame feat to fight inside houses without penalty. At level 3, he gets stuff, and DR 5.
Sarevok, there is a way for you to accomplish a cat as your mount using the Nature Oracle
It requires you to take the prestige class Mammoth Rider at level 10, however, you would gain a Huge sized Tiger this way! Massive damage, and taking the favored class bonus from 1st level, you would get a 16th level Cat that is sized huge at level 12. Pretty nasty stuff!

Check out the Mammoth rider threads, one of them has that exact idea posted by me. I still think it's the strongest choice. Huge pouncy tigers of doom with sidekick who can buff and heal and aid another (That would be the oracle by the way).

Well aren't you a super smart little rat! All kidding aside, the idea is great, and as far as size is a concern, this would really limit you on where you can go with the huge tiger. I would say that you would definitely need to keep a couple of reduce animal spells available. It would require you to have a good UMD score, or you could give have another player use it for you.
