What plant is this

Hi All, I'm trying to identify this plant. I just removed this from the soil since I've seen crawling pests around this. Not sure if this is a cactus variety- (wait for 24 hrs until it gets callus) should I soak the roots before I repot
or immediately repot this in soil? Im so confused. I hope you can help me. Thanks!

 

It doesn't look like a Cactus to me but I don't know what it could be. Sideways picture could help may be.
Regardless of what it is definitely repot it as soon as you can. Don't soak the roots, just water well after repoting.
May be posting in this forum Indoor and Greenhouse Plants could bring you better identification :-)

 

Also make sure that your new pot has a drainage hole at the bottom.

 

Thanks, Sundrop. :)

I think I found a similar image. It looks like Variegated Cattleya.
Here are some views I took photo. Not sure if I'd kill it. I soaked it in water

 

Looks like a Neoregelia to me (see Neoregelia Fireball 'Donger' for a sample). Or some other member of Bromelioideae.

 

Probably you didn't :-)

I believe Sulev is right, so now you have it identified.

 

Wow you got it! Thanks a lot! :)

Whew! I can breath now. =) thank you!

 

And follow the growing instructions in Sulev's link Neoregelia Fireball 'Donger'
