Most cacti are not toxic to cats. If your cactus is prickly, one touch and your cat isn't going to mess with it again. If you have a non-spiny cactus, it still isn't going to taste good so your cat would only nibble a little, and then at worst have a sick tummy. If you know the species of cactus concerned, look it up specifically. In general, though, it's probably fine. I've kept cats and cacti/succulents in the same living space for years and never had either one of them hurt the other.

No, the nectar is not poisonous. The plant uses the nectar in its flowers to attract pollinator's. If the nectar was toxic, it would be a self defeating arrangement. It would kill the very animals the plant needs to propagate.
