hanging cactus or succulents

I had a hanging cactus or succulent for years. It finally died. It looked like a hanging cactus with spines, but did require more water than a cactus. Also, when it hung long enough, it produced little cactus plants on the ends of the hanging strands of cactus. It was given to me by a friend about 25 years ago and I felt terrible to lose it. Is there a chance I can replace it? I have no photographs.
