In two super editions, tallstars revenge and crookedstar promise, the leads are abandoned by one or both of their parents (sometimes unintentionally but still)
It is a mojor plot point in both, more so crookedstars

Violetkit/paw is neglected by her foster mother (Thunder and Shadow). Brokenkit is neglected and abused by his foster mother and bullied by his foster siblings. Stormkit, renamed Crookedkit, is rejected by his mother after breaking and disfiguring his jaw (Crookedstar's Promise). Thunder is rejected by his father, Clear Sky, as a child after losing his mother and siblings (The Sun Trail). Spottedleaf’s Heart focuses on CSA (child sexual abuse) between Thistleclaw, a grown adult, and Spottedpaw, a child younger than Thistleclaw’s son.

Turtle Tail and Bumble are both in abusive relationships with Tom in Thunder Rising. The Imposter emotionally and eventually physically abuses Squirrelflight in The Silent Thaw. Bramblestar gaslights and emotionally manipulates Squirrelflight throughout Squirrelflight’s Hope. Crowfeather and Nightcloud get into a physical altercation in Fading Echoes.

An often-overlooked scene (I forget which book it's in, I'm sorry), is where a cat asks for catmint (catnip) ((weed)), which in the book is a herb used for treatment of sickness, despite not being sick. It's laughed off and it's very short.

In Spottedleaf's Heart, a super edition (and book neglected by most of the fandom) it shows a slightly disturbing relationship between an adult and child, and although nothing actually happens, the adult does try his best to get into a relationship with the child although fails.

There is depictions of an adult warrior trying to pursue a romantic relationship with a child character. This is only present in one book (Spottedleaf's Heart) which is not a main series book (rather, a novella). If I remember correctly, this isn't mentioned in any other books, except maybe Bluestar's Prophecy.

Drugs are not common in Warriors, although there are medicinal herbs. Sometimes these herbs are used in harmful ways, possibly in the equivalent to drugging somebody.

Spoilers ahead!
Several cats die in a forest fire during Rising Storm, though at least some died of smoke inhalation rather than burning.
In Long Shadows, a character tries to trap several other characters in a fire, but lets them live.
In The Last Hope, a scene is written confusingly enough that it seems like a burning tree kills a character, though the character in question actually dies of injuries previously sustained in battle.
In Thunder Rising, a character is badly burned during a forest fire and eventually dies of his injuries.

Three cats come to mind--
Brightpaw is attacked by dogs and her face is mutilated. She loses an eye and part of her ear, but she lives.
Longtail goes blind after a rabbit scratched his eyes, but he is alright and retires early.
Brokenstar is blinded by another cat as punishment for the atrocities he committed throughout his time as leader.

Cinderpelt, Cinderheart, and Jagged Peak all suffer broken legs (Fire and Ice, Outcast, and The Sun Trail, respectively). Crookedstar breaks his jaw as a young child (Crookedstar’s Promise). Briarlight and Frog suffer broken spines (Fading Echoes and Path of Stars, respectively). Clear Sky breaks his tail in three places in Path of Stars. Finleap’s tail breaks so badly in Darkest Night that it has to be amputated. Snowbush dies from an infected broken leg in Darkest Night. Snowbird breaks her paw in The Silent Thaw.

No self harm, but a cat does commit suicide by ingesting poison (not because he wants to end his life, but so he can find a ghost. he also comes back to life)
Also, another cat forces his followers to carve his symbol into their paw pads if that counts

Kind of. A cat named crowpaw says he doesn’t have a reason to live anymore, and has to be restrained.

The cats have their own swears, of course non-vulgar though (it is a kids book) but they can pretty easily be compared to real life swears

Yeah, kittens will wail if they are in pain/dying, or if they are sad. But it’s a book, so you don’t actually hear it.

Technically all the cats are being watched by Starclan, but there are a couple scenes where somebody is stalked or watched for a future plan. (Ex: Hollyleaf watching Ashfur unbeknownst to him to kill him later)

Confirmed LGBT cats (Tallstar, Ravenpaw, ect) and cats commonly thought of to be LGBT (Redtail, Blackstar, Rowanstar, ect) die, as the books take place through several years. No characters are killed for being LGBT, many die from old age or natural causes; but some die in battle.

Eh, It's complicated. There's no racial or ethnic misrepresentation in Warriors, since these are cats. Although cats without Clans are often looked at with disdain by Clan cats, cats who think this are often shown to be in the wrong to do so. There's also no 100% canon LGBTQ+ cats in Warriors. There's no real world religions in Warriors, but sometimes Clan cats think that cats who don't believe in StarClan are weird. Many people in the Warriors fandom consider disabled people to be misrepresented in Warrior Cats.

No, but Tigerstar‘s attempted ethnic cleansing of half-clan and non-forestborn cats in the first series may be an allegory to the Holocaust.

It is not intentional, but sometimes there are mistakes where a cat is called by the wrong gender, which are just simply things that slipped by the editors. This is worse for some cats than others.

Religion is a very important topic in the society of the cats - they believe in StarClan, which is the equivalent of heaven. They also have an equivalent to hell. They have doctors / priests and leaders who have strong connections to cat heaven, and atheists are looked down upon. Many characters have dreams about or that take place in StarClan or the spirits of deceased cats. There's far too much to mention - the forest cats are very religious.

Not in the context of ‘losing virginity’, but multiple cats get pregnant who haven’t been before if you count that.

While it was an accident, two siblings end up becoming mates. There's also other accidents where two cousins will become mates, but it's never mentioned they're cousins or related at all.

No graphic depictions of strokes are in the series. Shadowsight has seizures, not strokes. Some cats (such as Sagewhisker) are confirmed outside the books to have died from cardiac events.

This being a book series, you can't actually HEAR anything, but I do remember a scene where a character is nearly hit by a car, and the sound of the car veering to avoid them is described. IIRC, the scene is built up to though, and isn't super important, so it can be skipped fairly easily.

While lots of characters suffer injuries with lots of blood, one specific death is very worthy of the gore warning in The Darkest Hour. If you want specifics of the injury (stop reading if not!), he is clawed throat to tail along his belly and loses all nine lives at once since the injury is so severe. There might be worse, but this is the first that comes to mind.
