I wouldn't sweat it. At above freezing temps, your battery may discharge but not suffer much degradation. For peace of mind, you could just get a new battery when you get back. Not a big ticket item.

Actually, I would consider the battery in these cars to be a big ticket item. Well north of $200 for most of the ones on the market with many closing in on $300.
