    That looks more like a spring cactus to me. It seems that the winter, cactus and fall cactus typically have more spiky segments. Check out pictures of Rhipsalidopsis gaertneri aka Schlumbergera gaertneri (spring/Easter) vs Schlumbergera bridgesii (winter/Christmas) vs Schlumbergera truncata (fall/autumn/Thanksgiving). I went down a rabbit hole, trying to tell them apart years ago because I wanted one like the one you have. Yours is beautiful!
