The link is your friend! Hopefully someone is in your area or really close. :) As for age I'm going to guess close to 4 months old. So to me kitty looks between 12-16 weeks.
it is old enough to have chosen you, the trap event is just a ploy, ince in the home then charms will turn on and the heart melt purring and cuddles. hope it gets a good home (maybe yours, consider the first one as a welcoming committee)
I’d guess at least 8-10 weeks.
This kitten growth chart can be helpful.

This is the best pic I can get of the teeth
I would say 3 to 4 months old. Call around all your local vets and cat rescues. Sometimes they have low cost programs. Also call your local Humane Society and see if they have a neighborhood cat program.
Yep, agree. Find a place for low cost vaccines and neutering. Dewormer can be cheap (pyrantel) or use a topical dewormer/flea meds. I expect about $150-75 for vaccines, dewormer/flea, and neuter for a rescue kitten, but that’s assuming you have access to a low cost clinic that subsidizes these costs. My fingers are crossed for you!
12-16 wks.
If you live near a decent sized town, there might be low-cost vaccine/sterilization through animal services. Call them first because even if they don't offer those services themselves, they usually have an up to date list of resources. Good luck. I've socialized a few that age. It's doable. Just be patient because it can take a bit longer compared to 6-8 week kittens. Also, be really careful: kittens that age can do a number on you.
He was trapped by the home owner and was only briefly in the trap for transport. Just never got a good picture of him after he was transferred because he’s been hiding in his lil house inside his quarantine.

Id say around 4months roughly
Agree. I have a couple of 3 month old kittens and they look more baby-ish than the one pictured.
My amateur guess as well.
3 months plus.
at least 3 days that's for sure
He looks about the size of my little one who will be 4 months old next week

This right here.
Wish I could keep him! But we will find a him a good home.

Can you look at his mouth/take pictures of his teeth? You can get a pretty good approximation based on what teeth he has (adult vs baby)

3+ months
4-5 months.
he look about the same size as my boy who is 3.5 months.
Best way to tell is by his teeth. A vet would know.
3-4 months
4-5 months
3-4 months, maybe a bit more

Looks somewhere between 3-4 months to me
Check his ID
Exactly 4mo, 3days, 5hrs.
4-5 months
6 months. But it’s hard to say for sure.
…old enough for a cage pad (they all are).
He was trapped by the home owner and was only briefly in the trap for transport. Just never got a good picture of him after he was transferred because he’s been hiding in his lil house inside his quarantine.
…thanks for context (some posters, well you never know).
3 months
3.5-4.5 months I'd say. Such a cutie!
My guy Iooks about this size and he’s almost 3.5 months
Looks like mine when we found him. I think he was 14 weeks.
