A friend of mine in Chicago had a cappuchin for many years and all of a sudden for no reason it turned on his wife.........sadly it did some real damage too. They had to put the monkey down.

Cute......yes, interesting.........yes, exotic..........yes, pets.......no, not really.

Just my $.02 though.
 
What is your experience with monkeys?
I'm not a fan of keeping them as pets. I'm afraid Ruby will not do too good despite your best intentions.:(
I assume you have a license?
 
I'll admit she's cute now, but like Brook and Walls, I fear the worst. When she hits maturity, she'll be an absolute terror. Everyone I know who has worked at zoos or dealt with small monkeys verify this. Not sure when it will happen, but its inevitable and you'll be forced to dump her at a zoo or worse.
