The Cat's Eye Gem (and more) blast Bejeweled Blitz for iPhone, iPad

Come on, don't act as if you haven't seen a cat on your iPhone before--these phones were built for sharing "lolcat" pictures. (Apple should just bake the function right into iOS 5 already.) PopCap has updated Bejeweled Blitz with three powerful, familiar Rare Gems from the Facebook game: Phoenix Prism, Moon Stone and ... the Cat's Eye Gem!

Finally, we have the freedom to witness a cat fire lasers from its eyes on the go, too. Honestly, does anyone play for high scores? Of course, just higher scores to get the Cat's Eye Gem to appear, though. Yes, they cost an astronomical amount of Coins to harvest, but the 100,000 Coins PopCap awarded to players for dealing with recent game outages should pay for a few of those.

Besides, could you seriously pass up Anchovy, Snackers' mobile mechanical counterpart? (Really, this cat looks badass.) PopCap teases a future debate between the two mutant felines, but we predict yet another hilarious video. In other words, color us excited on many levels.
