I'd make it completely controllable like a permanent summoned creation and let the wizard draw ST as long as it is within creation range (in the wizard's mega-mega hex).
ITL does say a wizard can "have a cat as a pet or familiar". What about letting the wizard have larger familiars at 1 mana per ST over 4, so a ST 10 wolf would require "investing" 6 mana?
