Is there an animal pet equivalent to a succulent? Like something weird and hosed-up looking but if you forget to feed it for a month, it's fine?

You can keep those fuckers in a sealed jar for weeks.

No they're not

1. Put them in the correct soil

2. Don't water them

3. Especially do not water them in winter

I've found that if they are plump they don't need water for sometimes months at a time

NICE PLANTS, OP

They'll survive if you do that, but they won't grow and are unlikely to bloom. Most, if not all, succulents can in fact flower, though some take decades to do so.

I agree. Pretty good little plants. Lots of different kinds. There is someone here who does know about them...well, probably more than one person, but I remember someone having a lot and knowing how to care for them. Don't remember a name, though.

Nice plants op. I am by no means an expert on succulents but I think the 3rd one is a Kalanchoe daigremontiana in extremely poor health.

Op with all of your plants, if you are in doubt stop watering. If a cactus looks wilted, feels soft, or has decaying spots it is overwatered. If a cactus looks off it's probaby overwatered. When they're too dry most usually just shrink down a bit. What type of soil are they planted in? Make sure youre using a very porous substrate like sand, bark, perlite, or a similar mix. The worst enemy of a cactus is a situation where their roots are constantly wet

Most of yours look fine, they would probably just appreciate some more neglect

I took a horticulture class in high school, the 3rd one looks like what we called a 'pregnant plant'. Does it have little balls on the spiked bits of the leaves ever? You can pull them off and it will grow into a new plant if you put in some substrate.

Yah, this was the hardest thing for me. I killed a few of my first succulents because I felt I needed to water them every 4 or 5 days. Nowadays I water them every 2 weeks and I think that might even be too much.

I actually just got that one this weekend but looking into it it does seem to be a Kalanchoe diagremontiana like this dude said

Well I guess you can take a horticulture but you can't make her appreciate it. So you're saying if you pull them off, the balls will give you a pregnant plant?

The little mini plants that grow on the leaves of the Kalanchoe are the daughter plants, to be clear. The plant itself is called Kalanchoe or Mother of Thousands.
