I wonder if cats can hear it?
I bring my pepper plants in for the winter and put them in a room where I keep the door closed otherwise my cat will destroy them. I always know when they need to be watered because my cat will sit in front of the door meowing nonstop and sure enough they will be drooping needing water. After that cat shuts up and doesn’t care until it’s time to water them again later.
It’s like clockwork
If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

the emissions fall within the ultrasonic range of 20-100 kHz, which can be heard by both mammals and insects from 3-5 meters
Domestic cats have one of the broadest hearing ranges of mammals, extending from 48 Hz to 85 kHz for sounds of 70 dB SPL
Maybe, but to be fair I pulled the cat hearing range from the AI that’s currently telling us to eat rocks because it read it on Reddit.
