The tips of my moon silver cactus are turning brown!

I just adopted her but her tips are already turning brown😭. Is it normal??

An overwatered cactus will appear soft and either yellow or brown. The cactus may appear wilted and feel mushy to the touch..... so this may be the issue.

It's probably overwatered, thanks! But it is close to a north facing window with lots of light but indirect, so should I move it?

Your good right where it is You don't want the sun to blaze on it I'm thinking 💭 so your good It is a cactus 🌵 ... have to check that soil to see if it's moist and you are good to go. It can service with less water 💦. I'd just check on it to see what's up before you water it. Maybe pinky finger to the knuckle to see if moist
