Pet dog is at risk but ends up unharmed. Flounder and Sebastian are at risk at points but are also unharmed.

Ppl that have arachnophobia can sometimes be afraid of crabs. So just be aware that Sebastian is a realistic crab with all the legs and movements. I suggest googling a picture of him beforehand so you can see whether or not his appearance disturbs you.

Sebastian is a crab which, as mentioned in the “Are there spiders?” comments, can be triggering to some people who find bugs discomforting. He’s pretty realistic, but also very clearly CGI.

Eric washed up in a shipwreck and and was adopted by the Queen, but nothing about abandonment was mentioned, only that Eric is adopted technically.

Ursula, as seen in the original animated movie, has the power to see what Ariel is doing so she can plan her next actions accordingly. She uses what looks like a crystal ball.

Both of the main characters are initially not supported by a parent, but it's out of genuine concern, not malice, and has a happy ending.

Obviously not the mer-creatures, but Eric gets tugged under by Ursula’s eels.

It is confirmed that no one dies later, but the party boat scene shows characters that almost die in the fire caused by the storm.

Prince Eric passes out on the shore after Ariel saves him. He wakes up thankfully.

Ariel can’t breathe underwater when she’s first given legs, learning the hard way that all humans lack the ability to breathe underwater. It only lasts until the iconic “hair flipping at the surface” scene.

If you count the mer-creatures as “non-human”, then yes, some of them die. If you don’t, then no, no non-humans die.

Ursula is killed at the end, but she is the main villain and it’s nothing gorey.

Ariel’s mother passed away before the movie takes place, so there is no death scene but Triton mentions her.

Not exactly but can be considered cheating by some. Ursula disguises herself in order to prevent Ariel from fulfilling her side of the agreement. Ursula uses Ariel’s voice to trick Eric into thinking she (Ursula) saved him, and nearly proposes to her, but the truth is later revealed.

Someone gets spelled and is under the spell’s influence. Up to you if you consider that possession or not.

Eric coughs up water after nearly drowning, but it was very brief and it was only a little. It wasn’t intentional either, he just obviously needed to get the water out of his lungs.

There are sentient sea creatures and Sebastian mentions said creatures being eaten by humans, but no people are eaten and any meat or fish being eaten was not shown to be sentient.

No, but at one point Ariel attacks the villain to get something that was taken from her back, and the villain shouts that she's insane

There are storms in the beginning (boat scenes) and end with lots of lightning for dramatic effect. I found it to be an eyestrain and may trigger epileptic seizures.

No inappropriate parts are shown, but Ariel has no clothes after being turned into a human.

No but there is a carriage scene where there is mild peril for passengers and pedestrians-- it is played off as fun, adventurous travel scene.
