In a post on their Facebook page, they revealed that it is not sustainable to continue to run the business - which opened in September last year.
A statement read: "Sorry to say it’s the end of the road. It’s with great sadness that I have to announce that Furry Murry’s will be closing its doors on August 18.
"The team have worked extremely hard over the past year to try and create a safe, fun environment for families but unfortunately it’s just not been enough.
"As a working mum, it has been hard to juggle managing the building, trying to increase the footfall and providing exceptional service to our current clientele. It is incredibly sad for the whole team but it is not sustainable to continue to run the business.
"We are delighted to be able to honour current party bookings through until the end of the year, with the hope to accommodate any other further exclusive hire bookings.
"I would like to extend a special thanks to the full Furry Murry's team who have worked extremely hard over the past year.
"We hope we can welcome as many people as possible up to and including the 18th in a final fair well."
Dozens of people took to the comments to share memories and well-wishes.
One person wrote: "I’m so sorry to hear that. We have been coming every week, my daughter has loved it and built confidence with each visit. All of the staff have been so lovely and caring. I wish all of you the best."
Another added: "This is such sad news, I’m sorry to hear things haven’t worked out. You created such a lovely place, with the nicest staff and great food. We had a wonderful time at my daughter’s birthday which we’ll never forget! Wishing you all the best."
Someone else wrote: "Absolutely gutted."
