Identification: help with the name of this plant :)

I've had this plant a very long time. It's been atleast 12 years and I'd even say 15.
It has moved with me many times, about 9 times.
It has always been in the same pot. ..truly a plant that just grew with me looking after the kids and divorce and so on.
Years ago I must have found out the name because I remember reading about the bottom leaves constantly dieing off and need to be cut off.
Can someone please help with the name, so I can look up the care/lighting it needs.
Thank you :)

 

Chamaedorea elegans, or Parlour Palm.

It appears, as is so often the case here that it may have a mite infestation.

 

Thank you. Now I know the name I can continue looking at sites for the care :)
I appreciate it.
I haven't noticed any bugs on it at all. It's been neglected and put outside and brought in. I'll see if I can get it looking better now :)
Thanks

 

Advise keeping your palm away from your spider plant (Chlorophytum) and money plant (Pachira aquatica), which seem to be healthy.

Pot appears moldy: suggest new pot and fresh soil. Be sure that roots are OK and drainage excellent.

I hope that your cat does not have a taste for palm!
