The Plastic Cowboy Hat with Whistle is a child's toy cowboy hat with a whistle attached. It belongs to the Memento class and is worn on the head.

The whistle is its useful part. It works as a whistle, and blowing it is much louder than a shout. That makes it a handy way to call zombies away from a spot. The hat also keeps the head fairly warm for a toy.

Research Craft on it teaches a survivor to carve a whistle of their own.

Using

The hat takes the Hat slot and covers the head. It clashes with hoods, hooded jackets and sweaters, full head pieces and full suits. A hit or a fall knocks it off about half the time.

It is twice as warm as the Pilgrim Hat or the Pirate Hat. It also keeps out twice as much wind.

The whistle replaces the normal shout with a whistle blast. The blast carries about twice as far as a shout. A survivor can use it to pull a crowd toward one side of a street. The noise draws zombies to the wearer, so a clear escape route matters.

Research Craft on the hat teaches Carve Whistle. That recipe lets a survivor make a separate whistle.

The hat counts as fire fuel and tinder.

Notes

The whistle doubles the reach of a shout, which makes it a good lure.
Research Craft on the hat teaches Carve Whistle.
It is twice as warm as the Pilgrim Hat or the Pirate Hat.
A hit or a fall knocks it off often, so it is a poor helmet substitute.
