I've thought about doing this too. You would have the button trigger some identifier like a phone notification, screen, or even a light and then reset itself after so many hours or at scheduled times to know if they've been fed.

We have to give our cat a pill in the morning and evening so it would help us know if the other (or someone else like a relative babysitting) had already given it to him in addition to the feeding schedule.
