A dead mouse on a table is clearly shown in the scene where Honest John first appears. Gussie even points it out, making it clear that the mouse is dead. There is no blood, gore, or mutilation, though.

Not onscreen, but yes. There is a scene where Honest John is at a wake, and the body of the mouse the wake is being held for is shown onscreen.

Mice take the place of people.
Feivel is attacked by a horde of cocroaches in the New York City sewer. They are eaten by a lizard and he escapes.

In the "There Are No Cats in America" song, the Italian mouse talks about how his mother was eaten by cats. Fievel's father's parents were also eaten by cats.
