And while you wouldn't normally keep a capuchin monkey as a pet, she's lived with her humans since she was 8-weeks-old.

Keeping A Capuchin Monkey As A Pet

Gaitlyn Rae wasn't captured in the wild. But she also wasn't born there, either. And because of this, her family says she never would have been able to survive in the wild on her own. And that's how the loving humans wound up raising this sweet fur baby.

Judging by the adorable videos posted all over her social media pages, they treat the capuchin monkey more like a child than a pet. And it didn't take long before the pampered primate's daily adventures started going viral. With a robust following of over 7 million followers on TikTok alone, I think it's safe to consider Gaitlyn Rae an Internet star.
