Beast Bonded Witch and Free Bonus Feats


Rules Questions


The beast bonded witch allows the witches familiar to gain feats in place of the witch. The exact text is:

Quote:
Whenever the beast-bonded witch is capable of learning a new feat, she may choose to instead have her familiar learn the feat as a bonus feat. The familiar must meet the prerequisites for any feats that it learns this way. If her familiar is lost or dies, the witch can reclaim the feat slots and select new feats for herself, or apply the slots toward her new familiar.

Certain feats gained have a clause which says something like "____ need not have any of the prerequisites normally required for these feats to select them."

My question is, does the transfer feats ability require the familiar to meet the same prerequisites that it's owner would, or does a familiar need to meet the requirements before they are reduced?

Well it's worth remembering that a familiar essentially has all the same skill ranks as it's master.


If I want a monk to have a pet monkey with monkey shine, can I simply have my witch take a few levels of master of many styles and gain the prerequisite free bonus feats? Or do I have to wait till I have 11 ranks in climb?
