Rapunzel was twelve years old when the witch locked her in the tower, but she was probably older when the prince found her. The story doesn't tell us how old exactly.

Who originally wrote 'Rapunzel'?
Although classic story of Rapunzel comes from the Grimm Brothers, the tale can be traced back to similar tales from Italy and France. As is true with many tales, the first literary traces of the tale come from Giambattista Basile's Pentamerone(1637). Basile wrote about Petrosinella in his tale, with the heroine's name being derived from "petrosine" for parsley. There are many similarities in the tale to Rapunzel with a few differences. In Basile's tale the heroic pair elopes instead of suffering before discovering each other years after the witch curses them.
Sixty years later in 1697, Charlotte Rose de Caumont de la Force, a French aristocrat, published her own version of the tale. Her collection of Fairy Tales included "Persinette" (once again "persille" is parsley) which had obvious direct ties to Basile's tale. This tale is almost exactly like Rapunzel excepting the more detailed ending in which the heroes suffer even more after their reunion in the wilderness. Finally, the angry fairy spares them after finding mercy in herself. Then the couple lives happily ever after.
What is the theme of Rapunzel?
One of the main themes in Rapunzel is the concept of isolation and freedom. Rapunzel is kept hidden away in a tower, symbolizing isolation, but she eventually gains freedom when she meets the prince. Another theme is the idea of self-discovery and empowerment as Rapunzel learns to rely on herself and make her own choices.

In the movie "Tangled" she is captured because an old lady uses Rapunzel's hair to make herself young again. Her long hair is magic - it glows when she sings. When the old lady brushes her hair and Rapunzel sings, the old lady turns young again. The reason Rapunzel's hair is magic is because her mum, when she was pregnant, got sick and in order for the baby (Rapunzel) to survive the mother had to drink the magic flower juice, then when Rapunzel was born she had magic blond hair. The old lady captured her when she was a baby and keeps her locked away because if Rapunzel's hair gets cut it turns brown and is no longer magic. The old lady fears that if Rapunzel goes out into society, someone will cut her hair and the old lady can longer use its magic to make herself young again. The old lady once tried to cut Rapunzel's hair and it turned brown - that's how she knows.
That's what the movie says anyway.

Did Charles Perrault write Rapunzel?
No, although transcribing many now-classic folk-tales (and transforming them to fit the aristocracy), Rapunzel was not one of Perrault's tales. The believed original transcription dates back to Lo Cunti de li Cunto (The Story of Stories), in 1634 by Italian author Giambattista Balie. Creating the foundation for later, better-known versions, such as the Brother's Grimm, this version called Parsley, was believed to have been collected from the oral tales of Crete and Venice.

With all due respect, it's pretty difficult to get him to answer this personally, as he passed away in December of 1966. The answer doesn't seem to be explicitly stated in his Wikipedia biographical profile, but I believe that it would have to be a mouse, originally named Mortimer and ultimately named Mickey, whose popularity launched the commercial successes of Disney's enterprises and whose very creation also gained Disney his first "Honorary Academy Award" in 1932.
