Your choice about whether you want to risk the wrath of your landlord, but you cannot be evicted for getting a pet. Or you could move

My youngest cat, the adolescent Peanut, has one bizarrely amusing habit which I have not yet, alas, been able to capture by camera – though I’m trying.
He will sit up like a rabbit, straight up, front paws hanging at chest level, to get a better look at something above him or just because. So far, so normal.
He then stretches his paws over his head, looking up in their general direction, and briefly flaps them (often stretch-toed) as if he were batting at something just a bit beyond his nose.
Except there’s NOTHING THERE.
He does this pretty much every day. It’s like he has a piece of invisible string floating overhead and randomly enticing him to go for it.
Cats are weird.

My friend’s dog was snapping at imaginary insects in the air last night, so cats most certainly do not have a monopoly on weirdness.
