Somekind of Aloe and an unknown cactus

Question

These have been sitting in the windowsill forever now, thought the cactus was completely dead, but it began to throw out some new pups again this year. I have no idea what it might be, never seen it flower either.

As for the Aloe, it's 15-20 years old or so, but still no idea what it exactly is. Was forced to take some cuttings when the little kitty cat molested it, he also liked chewing on the small cactus and the crassula as you can see from the damage. :P

Yep, a little, as I said, it's been sitting in the same place on the windowsill forever now, so no ideal growing conditions. Could it possibly be a Hildewintera spp?

Thanks, that's it! I took a small cutting of off it so I can put it in some good soil and a better place. Would love to see it flower one day.
