About Gollum

Gollum is an energetic, playful senior with a bright, unique look—a blend of white, coffee brown, and gray patches, all paired with unmistakable green eyes full of curiosity. He loves a good game of chase and channels his boundless enthusiasm into every play session. Gollum's trust in people has come a long way, and while he's not a constant lap cat, he'll let you scoop him up for a quick snuggle—on your shoulder or in your arms—before darting off to find his next adventure. He's not one for belly rubs and prefers to keep things on his terms, but he's steadily turning his playful nibbles into sweet little licks. Gollum is a wet food fanatic who’s sure to ask for a taste if your dinner smells interesting. For reasons only he understands, the bathtub is his sanctuary; you’ll often find him tucked away in there enjoying some quiet time.

He’s used to coexisting with other cats and could do well with the right pet buddy or an energetic person who wants a spirited companion by their side. Start your journey together! Apply now.
