Are these peniscactus and boobiecactus look healthy to you? I got them from my parents for Christmas. They've had them since October. Little light. No dranage, cactus soil that's about 3 years old. My mom says she watered it a couple times since then but very sparingly. I am wondering what to do right now. I have them under a grow light in a warmer house now. I am unsure if I should disturb them with a pot change and soil change, or should I give them a soak and drain it myself after just to get them some water. Or do you think this looks like they already have enough water? They are SLIGHTLY squishy to touch, but mostly firm. My mom says they look just a slightly more shriveled/wrinkly since she got them. So I'm unsure if this is a good or bad thing. Are wrinkles like this normal for these cactus? The soil I checked with a meter, says it's bone dry. What should I do right now with this? Any reccomendations?

    They look alright. I wouldn’t panic. I would watch them for a week and go from there. Your boobie cactus looks no different than mine does right now

      Okay thank you! I'll do my best not to overwater with the no drainage hole problem. They were recently replanted into that soil and I don't wanna shock them with so much change
