But if you were counting (rather than saying what the words were) you would count
aon, dó, trí, ceathar, ...

Beware however that if you are counting things it would be
úll amháin
dhá úll
trí úll
ceithre úll
cúig úll
sé úll
seacht n-úll
ocht n-úll
naoi n-úll
deich n-úll

If you are counting people of any kind it is different again
duine (or fear amháin, bean amháin)
beirt (beirt fhear, beirt bhan)
triúr (triúr fear, triúr bean)
ceathrar
cúigear
séisear
seachtar
ochtar
naonúr
deichniúr

The ordinals (first, second, third)
An chéad úll
An dara úll
An triú úll
An ceathrú úll
An cúigiú úll
An séú úll
An seachtú úll
An t-ochtú úll
An naoú úll
An deichiú úll

Thanks Phil.
I don't think one would say aon chat, though.

Cat amháin, or aon chat amháin
