While the majority of dogs in the game are seen alive, one of their siblings(?) is deceased and talks to Quote as a ghost shortly before the true ending’s final boss fight.

There's an easter egg where the player can sleep in Chako's bed after meeting her and interacting with her fireplace. When you wake up, Chako is sleeping in the bed, and there's lipstick stashed in your inventory.
While this easter egg does allude to some sort of sexual scenario, initially choosing to sleep in the bed does not prompt any unique text. As such, the player doesn't know this will happen without prior knowledge of the easter egg, and the player character himself doesn't react either way. As a kid I assumed Chako just climbed into the bed while he was asleep, which... yeah.
This scenario can be avoided entirely by not sleeping in Chako's bed after you initially interact with her fireplace.

While Cave Story isn't a visually graphic game, various children are injured, killed, enslaved, and transformed into monsters during the narrative.
The player is expected to injure/kill two different child characters during separate boss battles.

Plenty of enemies are based on real-life animals. Most of them die in a cartoonish puff of smoke and aren't given personalities to get attached to.
Despite being bipedal and sapient, mimiga are small and look a lot like lop-eared rabbits; they're a bit less humanoid-looking than most 'furry' characters. Many mimiga are killed, some by the player.
There is a ghost of a dog who speaks to you before the game's third ending.

An entire level of the game (“Egg Corridor?”) is basically devoted to dead, dying, or undead dragons. The dragons who are alive largely seem to have been hatched prematurely, or are otherwise in pain. The player kills numerous dragons in this level, though given the context it’s probably best to put them out of their misery.

One of the bosses happens to be a cat inside of a large machine... it is unknown whether it dies after being defeated; it simply falls out of the machine and disappears off-screen.

The transformative effects of the Red Flowers could be described as this. Both final bosses feature heavy use of more overt body horror.

Characters use swords, but there's no graphic depiction of cutting or bleeding; enemies simply explode into clouds after being defeated.

The player can be crushed by several enemies and obstacles but this just causes the standard "death" animation to play, which is a small explosion.

3rd ending, right before the credits. It's scripted into a cutscene, and everything turns out okay after a moment.

A character sacrifices himself, but it doesn’t seem like he’d intended to die going in.

Mahin is a large mimiga who spends most of his time eating, which is highlighted in the game's credits text. Despite this, he doesn't appear very often.

In an obscure easter egg, the player is implied to have slept with a bipedal rabbit-like creature. However, this character is an adult of roughly human sentience, and the player character is [SPOILER] a robot, so whether this qualifies as b********y is debatable.

There is an easter egg which implies the player character might've slept with an NPC. You can go to sleep in her bed and wake up beside her with lipstick in your inventory. It's nothing graphic, though, and you can simply avoid it altogether by not sleeping in Chako's bed after you initially meet her and look into her fireplace.
There is another easter egg where you can find a tunnel in a wall and acquire one character's 'panties' from a chest. You have to go out of your way to find them in Curly's room.

(SPOILERS AHEAD) Curly will drown in order to save the player character unless an obtuse, permanently miss-able series of steps is taken to save her, which is required for the game's best ending.

Mostly bloodless, but there are some instances of blood. This includes injured baby dragons with blood coming from their eyes, and a boss melting into blood (the limited graphics make it look like red dots)
