Yeah it looks good just make sure it gets plenty of sun and water it once or twice a week. You may want to get a new pot in the next year or so.

Once or twice a week?  I thought cacti didn't need as much water as regular plants.  I've been watering mine every Saturday.  Should I be watering them more often?

I guess it depends what type it is, but I only watered mine 2-3 times a month.

In sixth grade, before I learned about the almighty PLA, I brought a cactus to school and left it in my locker for about five months, and I was able to easily bring it back to life by just watering it again. I must ask for forgiveness for my cactus neglect, I was only a child back then.

Thats a scar most likely when it was younger. It's normal but just ugly.

My cactus likes the sunlight just a little too much.  It's bending towards the window and seems like it's going to get tangled up in the blinds soon.  What should I do??  I guess I'll rotate the whole thing so it tries to grow the other way, even though that'll put all the tiny cacti in the back so I can't see them anymore.

I just did a google image search for 'dead cactus' and linked to the first one in a pot I saw.
