The most obvious word that is neither 'hungry' nor 'angry'
is the word 'ungryphon-like'. Other words that are lest often
used are: 'pangryphon' (since one seldom wishes to contemplate 
more than one gryphon), 'angryphon' (this was last used in error
by the last gryphon in England who said that England had not
been the same since it had become an angryphon country [note
that most people excused the gryphon from failing to remember
that England was not yet angrypon since he was still there because
it is well known that the only way a gryphon can live with himself
is by ignoring himself]), 'nongryphon' (a predicate that is practically
synonomous with 'true')

(note: gryphon is a recognized spelling of griffin in Webster's and
Chamber's)
