Technically the cat has already been abandoned but not for long. I'm very sensitive and this didn't upset me.

For what the movie plot is, it's quite tame. Pretty much only see blood, and it's not excessive. Only used for shock factor once.

It's not seen but mentioned multiple times. In once brief scene a character has a flashback and you see a woman's back lying in a bathtub with blood on the floor, however it's out of focus.

The finger shown in the sink looks very fake, and you don't see anything actually happen. So it depends on your comfort level.

Yes. It doesn't show her doing it, but the mother does commit suicide and the self-harm is evident when her body is found.
