Answer

Hi iliveinthetundra,

Guinea pigs don't develop deep relationships with people.

They will not be traumatized, and will be OK. (What will be the alternative?)

Find a willing friend, and let them babysit the pigs, don't think of it as giving them away. They will await your return.

As will we all. God Bless your service.
