Frage über Englisch (US)

Does the word “catcall” express any sexual connotation?
I know one may use it to demonstrate disapproval or displease to someone/smth. Like “a crowd catcalled a signer after mediocre performance”.
But is natural to say “fellows catcalled a pretty girl passing by”? As if wolf whistling?
Many thanks!
