Getting a cat as a dog person?

I'm a dog person. I've had a family dog most of my life, but only get to see him once a month since I moved for college. I've now graduated and plan on staying in my current apartment for a while. My apartment is really not ideal for a dog, so I thought, why not a cat? I still don't know how to feel about converting to a cat person. Hopefully one of you can convince me lol
