Do pets understand the concept of painkillers?

My cat had surgery on Tuesday and I'm starting to think that she understands what her painkiller is for. She fought really hard Tuesday and Wed when given antibiotics and her pain pill. Thursday morning, she initially fought me on the pain pill and spit it right out when I got it in her mouth, but then she did something strange and ate it all on her own. I thought maybe she was a little confused, but this morning when I went to feed her the pill, she protested me opening her mouth, but once the pill was in, she simply swallowed it without a fuss. She still fought me on the antibiotics and the new pain syrup, but not the pill.
