    Umm, not a cactus for sure.
    More like a succulent.
    I am terrible with succulent names.

    Might be a Senecio mandraliscae....

    Some sort of sedum or crassula. Not much help I know. Doesn't quite look like senecio mandraliscae, I have that and the leaves(?) are longer and thinner.

    It does look an awful lot like Senecios, now that I'm looking at photos, but what particular kind is still a mystery! Thanks for the feedback so far; very helpful!

    I'm starting to lean towards senecio also and take back my earlier post. Some sort of senecio. Succulents are so hard to sort out, theres so many!

    I just noticed the flowers, those remind me of sedum again. I have a plant I tentively identified as sedum that kind of resembles that, not enough to be the same type though.

    It's not jade though, jade is rounder and greener. Unless there's another type different from the common jade I have.
