Improved Familiar Attunement and Call Bonded Item

[Gisher]

I'm wondering whether your Familiar counts as your Bonded Item for the purpose of Call Bonded Item if you have the Improved Familiar Attunement Thesis.

Your connection with your familiar alters your arcane bond class feature so that you store your magical energy in your familiar, rather than an item you own; you also gain the Drain Familiar free action instead of Drain Bonded Item. Drain Familiar can be used any time an ability would allow you to use Drain Bonded Item and functions identically, except that you draw magic from your familiar instead of an item.

The prerequisite for Call Bonded Item is Arcane Bond. Does this altered version still qualify? It would be neat if you could call your Familiar to you anytime you want with a single action.

if it works that sounds very useful for scouting

Nice idea. Use Share Senses to monitor their progress, and if they get into trouble use Call Bonded Object to bring them back to you.
