I do not KNOW that about plants, it may be that they feel as much as animals do, or perhaps they do not. That's the difference for me.

As far as I can remember plants don't have any kind of nervous system so they don't "feel" anything. They do move towards light and send out roots to search for water and nutrients but they don't do this "consciously". They are extremely complex and quite fascinating but they don't have a consciousness.
