Hey Jed,
When I use nightcrawlers for cats, it doesn't seem to matter how I hook them on the hook. I have tried both putting them on in a ball, and threading them on with the ends hanging free just like you do for trout, and either way the results seem to be the same. I don't think the cats care at all which way it's on there. I would just put one on at a time, you'll save yourself some worms. They'll smell one just as good as 2 or 3, and even the big 12-15 pounders will hit a worm (although I get a lot more bites with carp meat for large channels).
