Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! For a cat of about 11 pounds of body weight, the daily calories should equate to about 280 calories per day. I recommend twice a day feedings and you will have to take a look at the calories per can / cup with the current food you are feeding and measure it out equally so that you are feeding 280 calories worth per day. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
