There's a distinction between pain and suffering.
Monkeys electrocuted in a way that can be prevented if said monkeys keep on pulling a lever before the next scheduled jolt develop ulcers from the stress / cortisol. Monkeys in contrast who are given a dummy lever that does nothing don't develop ulcers because they have no choice but to receive the shocks.
This relates to why intuitively we tend to behave as though an animal like a monkey can suffer while we tend to behave as though a plant can't.
