The cave is the home to goblins of the mountain that attack Bilbo, Gandalf and the dwarves. Gollum also lives in the deepest part of the mountain, where he keeps the ring of power. Bilbo steals the ring and starts a riddle game with Gollum. He beats Gollum and escapes the caves and catches up with the dwarves. Gollum will later venture out of the cave to find Frodo and his precious.

"The Hobbit" does not mention the Mines of Moria at all, so the question cannot be answered. <----this is wrong...it is mentioned many times in the hobbit for instance on page 56 (depending on the edition) where Gandalf mentions goblins being there.

No, the goblins found in the Mines of Moria are in fact from the Mines of Moria! Sauron's orcs are a different species.
