This was a picture book I read in the early 80's. A man tells his wife about something he saw or a dream he had or something: a group of black cats were holding a funeral for their king, or something. When he finishes telling the story, his own cat, who we realize was actually listening and understanding the story, shrieks in surprise that this means *he* is the new king, and he runs out into the night. Quite a surprise ending and I remember it being kinda dark and creepy. Any help appreciated. I remember the cats had kinda strange names, I mean it wasn't like the new king was Fluffy or anything.
