strange plant ive never seen

I just bought a [supposed] houseplant at a general store (the shame I know) because when I saw it, it was just too cute to leave there. The plant was unlabeled and the employees in the appropriate section could not identify it (which isn't surprising considering you need entry level skills to be hired). At any rate, I'd like to know how to take care of it. Does anyone know what this is? It currently stands around 10" high.
