It's always right after they eat. Do they eat too fast? Or could it be the food? Feeding them Purina.

Could your cat be stressed by something in his environment such as other cats competing for food, noisy children in the same room etc. One of my cats will often throw up after or during eating unless I give him his food in a separate room where he can quietly take his time to eat.

They are probably eating too fast. My kitty is a bit of a glutton, and she will often eat too much too fast and then get sick. Try giving smaller amounts of food spread out over a period of time.

I keep food out all day for my cat. If the bowl ever goes empty, she completely freaks out and throws up for a day or two. I also feed her Iams hairball control. Hope this helps.

Your kitty could have a sensitive stomach. Try feeding a food for sensitive systems. If that doesn't work and it's not hairballs (mine will throw up a lot prior to hair ball ejection)give your kitty Forta-Flora for cat IBS.

Feed them a more wholesome food. Purina's ingredients are not so great. Try a better food they will eat less, get less upset stomachs and have better overall health.
As far as hairballs...it may be that they just need more regular brushing. And make sure they have enough fresh or running water...that is critical to the health of a cat.

I would try changing the food over to another brand..

TRY GIVING LAXATONE WHICH HELPS HAIR BALLS PASS THROUGH THE STOOL. GOOD LUCK!
