Why is my cat's meow suddenly different and hoarse after a new kitten?

Question

I have a male cat who is nurtured. We recently got a kitten which he did not take very well. VERY JEALOUS! He has been behaving differently which I understand and wanting to stay outside a lot more; which I also understand. But today when he came in he is meowing very differently. It's more horse sounding. This has me very concerned. Why would he sound so different all of a sudden? Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 1 year and 3 months old | 10 lbs

Sometimes the time of a cat's meow will change based on their mood or emotion. As long as all else Is normal with him ( he's eating, drinking and normally active) I wouldn't worry. Could just be behavioral.
