Hello! My neighbor was moving out of their place and didn’t want to bring the plants with them on their move so I told them I’d take them in. For background, this is located in Adana Türkiye. The first plant is attached and I am adding a few other ones with concerns in the comments!
I have no idea what watering has been in the past sadly, but Thumper here looks kinda sad – I suspect it is because there is no drainage hole at the bottom of this pot but then I also don’t know it it looks like it is overwatered or underwatered – I have never owned a cactus before so any advice is helpful! Thumper is on a south balcony here and gets full sunlight! Not sure about the mix used but you can see in the pictures it looks like it might be succulent soil?

Thumpers buddy here, Thomas, seems to be in alright shape but the bottom of him is kinda brown. This one looks like it is in the original pot so part of me thinks giving him a terracotta pot might help but also have no clue what needs to change here. They are in the same space so you’ll see Thomas has full light and is on the same balcony.

This is Edith… in this photo she’s inside but soon after I found ants crawling out of her and it worried me about getting any in my house so she has been relocated to the balcony we have facing the north. She has just a little brown tips to her leaves. I assume she needs water based on what I’ve seen online for other plants with brown tips, but the soil to me seems to be a little dense and like it might hold moisture so it sort of boggles me to think she needs more. The pot is terracotta and has a drainage hole under it.
