why don't the stars appear red near the horizon?

Since the light being scattered in the atmosphere causes sun to appear yellow/red during sunset/sunrise, why we don't see this effect for other objects, for example the moon or the stars?

We do see this effect for the other objects. The moon is orange-tinted when close to the horizon. The same for stars, though it's near impossible to spot by eye. Human eyes have a really bad time seeing colours at low intensity and moreover the Rayleigh reddening is quite less than the variation in the actual colour of the stars. But if you track a single star in its motion during the night and study its colour you can observe it's redder closer to the horizon compatibly with Rayleigh scattering.
