I have a moon cactus I put on my shelf, not realizing it didn’t have as much sun light, so it started wilting. I put it on the sun light a couple days ago, and now it is worse. I watered it hoping it would help, but it did not.

The picture is before I put it in the window, it is much worse now.

This happens a lot. These are actually made by grafting two cacti together, so it’s pretty common for one of them to die off. Unfortunately, the moon cactus does not usually contain chlorophyll, so it might not survive on its own. You can always try cutting it off, potting it up, and seeing if it grows roots.
