This is an issue with distance, just like most things in don't starve if you are too far away updates don't always happen, a good way to prevent this is to lure whales near your base before killing them, or to spend some time nearby. It takes far less time for whale corpses to bloat if you are nearby. If you kill a whale far from your base, visit often or spend some time on a nearby island to help it bloat faster.
