I have a situation similar to your except for the travel. My Tonk is a single cat and seems to do all right alone, but I would be hesitant about leaving a single cat for several weeks at a time. Even with someone checking on it regularly there could be problems.

Two Tonks means twice the love. They will play together, but you do not have to worry about being ignored. As to being destructive, Tonks learn quickly, so as long as you provide a scratching post (or two or three) that will not be an issue. Just be sure to train them in using the post and there will be no trouble.
