I wonder this too.  Him being a point is no big problem - its enough both his parents are carriers of the point gene.  And 1 of 4 kittens is born a point, two of the greys are carriers. Exactly this happens now and the among the Russian Blue for examle.

But.  Imperial does also carry white.  White spot gene is a dominant gene, so one of his parents has surely white.   But TWO of the kittens should have white, not just Imperial, but also another one.

The statistics arent ironclad, so its fully possible. But still a question.

Imperial - if he is shorthair, you will prob want to compare him with a Snowshoe.

If he is mediumhair, you will probl want to compare him with Ragdoll bi-color...
