what type of cactus is this?
and where can I get it?

Prickly Pear cactus. Tortoises usually like. I bought some from Carolina Pet Supply and planted some extra's in a flower pot too. that way I'll have my own supply.Nice thing about this species it has very few spines. Some take the cold outside in winter but don't know about this species you might be able to find in the produce section of the grocery store,too .It's used in some Mexican dishes

You will be able to find something similar in a Mexican grocery store; they are called nopales.
