is there a feat besides extend spell that makes creatures you summon with SNA spells last longer?
im looking it for a druid focused on summoning.
And overall, what feats would you recommend for this kind of character?

The only one I can think of is Augment Summoning in the PHB. It bumps the Str and Con of all your summons.

I recommend Augment Summoning from the PHB, and then there is Greenbound Summoning, another good feat.

For longer term type summoning, there is the Planar Ally/Planar Binding series of spells.

P.S. You might take a look at this thread, I created a while ago:

Its fuzzy, though, I only vaguely remember it. I might've made it up in my sleep, too.
