How old is he? My 17-year old cat will sit in the middle of the floor or on the toilet set cover or in another room and yowl. She is either hungry or just plain lost. If I go and pick her up and put her on the bed beside me, she usually calms down.
Perhaps if you stop responding, the behaviour...
You can get his claws clipped for starters. I have a cat who follows me everywhere and twists himself around my ankles. He will bat at me and act aggressive. For him, I say a sharp No and clap my hands loudly. You can also get a can and put coins in it and shake it when he attacks.

I have two female Torties who are 15 and 18. Both of them have started yowling, sometimes to be fed or petted, but more often no reason at all. They can act confused and stare off into space, forget how to get off a shelf they just jumped on.
