Maybe keep a small pillow over your collarbone area? Especially if you have a buckwheat or microbead one that molds to the shape of whatever you put it on.
I had abdominal/pelvic surgery with a cat who loved walking across my stomach, so while I was recovering I never lay down without a pillow covering my incisions. When she did step on it, the pillow at least helped disperse her weight so it didn’t hurt much.
Thats smart. I fell asleep with an ice pack on my should and I threw a towel over it so my cats claws wouldn't pierce the plastic pack. He was more curious abt why I was icing I guess
