Teddy Bear cactus! And I concur that it needs significantly more light. Presuming you live in the northern hemisphere, get it into a south-facing window for optimal sunlight, but if that isn’t possible a west-facing window will work, too.
Looks like a Mammillaria matudae!

Thank you! It’s been in a south window for years so not sure why it’s still so horizontal. I’ll try hardening it off (lol) outside for the summer since my patio is extremely sunny.
