Three more for identification please

Any help a positive ID for these three would be most welcome...

This one matches the description for Mammillaria glochidiata except for its overall shape:

I think this one is Mammillaria ottonis:

But I have no idea what this hairy little fella is - the 'upright' looks like a 'bunny ears' Opuntia that needs a haircut, the horizontal part seems to have areoles in straight lines with darker brown hair!

Thank you (tu)

and Richaud... I couldn't find anything that looks like it so I guess it is a collapsed C. straussii as you and anttisepp suggest. A terminal case I imagine!
