YES. A lot of animals die on this show, from random animals to beloved pets.

A rat is placed into a pan against someones belly and heat is applied to the pan. Also, some dogs are left in starvation, but they later eat their owner, which is nice.

Several direwolves fight people or monsters in battles, but the direwolves don't fight each other.

Specifically, I think one gets beheaded. It's considered in poor taste by the onlookers, but it happens.

A cat's death from the hands of one of the character's psychopaths is discussed and described, but not shown. The description is quite graphic, however.

The costumes worn in Qarth are inspired by bugs.
In season 4 episode 8, two main characters have a long conversation about a man who used to kill beetles for fun.

S3E3: Jaime Lannister, a main character, is led to a chopping block, where his dominant hand is amputated by a bandit. It is done cleanly, though gore is shown. Jaime then carries the hand with him on a rope around his neck. Later, he gets an artificial gold hand as replacement. A major part of his character arc is learning to live without his hand.

One particular character is tortured, both physically and psychologically, to a point where they essentially become an entirely different person & end up entirely submissive to their captor.

Most of an army is burned alive in the season 6 finale and episode four of season 7. A little girl is burned alive in season 5 episode 8. Dothraki are burned alive in some episode of season 6, I wanna say five. In episode two of season 9, wildfire (similar to historical Greek fire) was used to burn a whole fleet of ships and its inhabitants.
It's a show with dragons and religions based around burning people alive. If you don't like fire, avoid.

Multiple scenes with the wildlings contain references to or imagery surrounding cannibalism. Also multiple characters discuss experiences during sieges/long winters where they’ve resorted to cannibalism, other characters are told they should be first, rumours are spread about certain races being cannibals.

Not sure if this counts, but some characters (called wargs) are able to possess the mind of animals, and when they do so, their eyes rolled back into their head

Season 1: safe
Season 2, episode 1: Joffrey forces a man to drink a barrel of wine towards the beginning of episode, and he doubles over puking on screen (very brief).
Season 2, episode 9: a man on Stannis’s ship vomits on screen into a barrel near the beginning of episode(very brief)
Season 3, episode 1: While Dany and Jorah are talking on a ship, a man vomits off-screen (audible) and in the next shot, he is hunched over next to where he puked (vomit visible on ground).
Season 3, episode 4: Jaime pukes onscreen after drinking from a bottle. Happens right after his captors tell him it’s horse piss.

Lord Hoster Tully dies from cancer. The death is not shown, but his funeral is. The disease is not specifically identified as cancer on the show but is heavily implied to be cancer in the books.

Someone has to pretend to be a boy, someone isn't comfortable acting like a girl, someone gets castrated. A lot of people are already castrated.

I can think of at least 3 LGBT characters who are killed in the show. All of their deaths are graphic, which is in keeping with the graphic nature of the show.

There is a bittersweet "Yay, I'm alive!" ending for a handful of characters. At least 10 times that many named characters died, and who knows how many thousands of extras and CGI characters! As someone else said, it depends on who (and what) you rooted for.

It is shown, actually. Season 5 episode 10 (SPOILERS) while Arya is training as a faceless man, she disguises herself as a young girl in a brothel knowing that Ser Meryn Trant is a pedophile and will choose her to use. He then beats her on screen, and she takes off the face she's wearing and stabs him to death.

Multiple hangings throughout the series. In the later seasons (not sure about first few) you're even shown the facial expressions of the people that are hanged and you see them struggle

No guns, just fists, swords, clubs, claws, axes, arrows, incendiaries, catapults, whips, tramples, pliers ... pretty much any way to hurt someone using medieval tools.

The series has lots and lots of graphic violence: dismemberment, disfigurement, beheading, gruesome dead bodies, stabbing, flaying, throat slashing, burning alive, eye gouging, physical torture...
