What's This Settlement About?

A $2,000,000 Class Action Settlement has been reached with Pets Global, alleging that some of their products, which were labeled as “grain free” or “chicken free,” were actually determined through third party testing to contain grain and chicken. Thus, the class action lawsuit against Pets Global alleged that they had falsely advertised some of their pet food products.

How Do I Qualify?

You may be eligible for reimbursement if you reside in the United States and purchased certain "Zignature" pet food Products marketed or labeled as “Grain Free” or “Chicken Free” for personal, family or household use, and not for resale.

The date of purchase must have been from June 2, 2017 through June 24, 2022 (the “Class Period”). A complete list of qualified and affected Products is available HERE, or see the lists of class action products that qualify in the image below:
