Hey there! That is a very sweet looking succulent. I’ll provide you some general information about succulents to help out:
☀️ They love lots of nice bright light! They can be kept inside in a sunny window or outside, but be careful of too much direct light as this can burn them. It’s best to slowly acclimate them to the brighter light to avoid burning.
💦 Succulents are great because they can go weeks without water, depending on the size of its pot and roots. Usually they can be watered deeply once every 2-3 weeks. Many succulents will show signs of thirst with their leaves, they’ll become wrinkled so it’s a nice indication, but water them deeply when the soil is BONE dry. I like to put them in a tub of water and let them soak up the water for a while (and I gently pour some water into the top soil as they soak), but be sure to avoid getting water on the leaves as this can cause mildew. They need to be somewhere sunny and with good air circulation to avoid rot.
🪴Their pot needs drainage holes and the soil needs to be made for succulents/cacti, which means it’ll have rocks, perlite, sand… etc. in it to maximize the drainage abilities.
