We had a cat with dementia... wound up making a large "sand pit" with a flat tray around her box so that when she got her front paws in and thought she was there, she actually had her hind paws in the pit and things were caught. Doesn't sound like your issue, but maybe it'll be of use in the future.
Congrats on EVERYTHING - you've got it all going!

I didn't have augmentation, just lift/reduction, but I found the snug sports bra to be very comfortable for the first two weeks, and by week 3 I was itching to get back into stuff I liked better (and so much swelling had gone down, the sports bras were more irritating than supportive by that time)!
Do you know what they're recommending you wear?
I did find that pillows on either side of me helped keep me on my back the first week - at that point, rolling over HURT.
I didn't have any drains (my surgeon's don't like them, so rarely use them and I had no problems that drains would have been useful for), so no advice for that. One thing people keep mentioning is a soft t-shirt under any compression garments. I found that an inexpensive (think clearance) Old Navy camisole worked better: I could pull it up over my hips instead of twisting and pulling to get it over my head. Trying that early out hurt my breasts and my arms, not sure which was the primary issue.
I can't think of anything else - but pm or call me if you have questions or vents!

Swinging lizards all goes as planned and the kitty gets over her snit. She's definitely mad at you. lol
