The activated ability doesn't target any creature or make any specific creature have to block. Activating it more than once in a turn provides no additional benefit.

2013-09-15wotc

If Loathsome Catoblepas is attacking and its activated ability has resolved, the defending player must assign at least one blocker to it during the declare blockers step if that player controls any creatures that could block it.
