How to Find the Percentage of A column

I Have column which has a value for each day for example :

Event Day  Category
10-10-10      1
10-10-10      2
11-10-10      1
11-10-10      2
11-10-10      2
11-10-10      2

I want to do percentage for each Category for each day.

So output :

Event Day  Category   %
10-10-10      1      50
10-10-10      2      50
11-10-10      1      25
11-10-10      2      75
