sorry, just had to get the silliness out. I've been watching kid's tv all
morning with my 3 year old and it has that affect on me. now I can be normal
again. but seriously...Is he sounding as though he's in pain? Or is he just
expressing himself? My kitten yowls when he is bored or wants attention, but
I've had other cats yowl when they're unhappy about something. Has he had
any checkups lately? As it's after food, could he have digestive/toilet
problems? If it's because of pain, I would look at that, as it's
specifically after food time isn't it. Or is he wanting more? Is it possible
he's just going a little barmy in his old age or something? If you've had
him recently checked out I wouldn't worry, but if he hasn't been for 6
months or so, I'd get him in, it could just be that he's having a general
whinge or it could be that he's starting to feel a little 'not quite right'
somewhere in his body.
