Don’t confuse you not being able to obtain consent with them with them having an inability to not want something. This speaks to you having no clue what’s going on in their heads.

sentence and consent are unrelated. One has nothing to do with the other.

An animal can indicate things to a human, i.e., “I want food”, “please scratch me”, or “where is my baby that you just took away”. They can’t sign their name on a legally binding contract but that doesn’t mean they’re incapable of wanting or not wanting something.
