This popped into my head.
There's a couple ways to get a Famliar these days, and most the time they get Share Spell. Only, how does this work if an Alchemist picks one up? They get spell's but aren't quite spells and then you have to ask yourself about Infusion. Just a whole mess in my head.
Someone clear up how this works?
My linkfu is weak, but in the APG faq this was said:
"Alchemist: Is an alchemist a spellcaster for the purpose of crafting magic items other than potions?
As written, no, alchemists are not spellcasters, and therefore can't select feats such as Craft Wondrous Item.
The design team is aware that this creates some thematic problems with the idea of an alchemist creating golems and so on, and plan to examine this in the future."
The first sentence of the reply tells us alchemists are not spellcaster, hence no spells to share.

Java has the default answer. A normal familiar doesn't interact with extracts at all.
now though there are some familiars like the tumor familiar that has this line, "An alchemist’s extracts and mutagens are considered spells for the purposes of familiar abilities like share spells and deliver touch spells."
for these we don't know how it's supposed to interact and there are a few threads about this that don't get anywhere, though they can be useful for getting ideas for how you want to run it.
I was just messing around with the idea of a Poppet Helen in the lab, so why not pick up Familiar.
But wow can't even do that according to the rules.
