What sources do you have to back this up? Its true that sometimes guinea pigs just end up alone due to certain circumstances eg constant fighting and repetitive failed bondinf. But ideally guinea pigs need to be with others

No, don't get guinea pigs if you're not willing to keep more than one. Imagine your only company being someone who doesn't speak your language, for your entire life.

[@Dionysor]

short answer: no long answer: yes if you're unemployed and can spend infinite time with your pig 🥰
