Are there any feats that increase the range of supernatural abilities? I am playing a sorcerer with the infernal heritage howl feat and wanted to increase its range. Would Enlarge Spell-like Ability apply? Is there a more applicable feat?

Feats that affect spell-like abilities should not affect supernatural abilities...they are two different things. That's why spell-like abilities require separate feats from spells...they are two different things, even though they mechanically work the same. So, for your second question, I would say that the Enlarge Spell-Like Ability would not work for a supernatural ability.

I don't know where to find any feats that work with supernatural abilities. In the MM pg. 303 there is a feat called Ability Focus that works with any special attack, which I would think includes supernatural abilities. Since it's a feat that does the same thing as Spell Focus, but works with something other than spells, I'd say that there are other feats for supernatural abilities out there somewhere. If you can't find any, then use the other Spell-Like Ability feats in the Monster Manual as a guide and work with your DM to try to develop the feats you need.

There are some feats in Tome of Magic that will do that type of thing. They are useable onle once/day though (I don't recall if you can take them multiple times to increase that, though I wouldn't suggest it anyway). It really isn't worth the expenditure for 1/day/feat.
