They will carry out new tests for DNA evidence and try to identify a geographical pattern to the slaughter.
It is hoped the CSI-style probe will shed new light on who is behind the ritualistic killings, first reported in Croydon, South London, in 2014.
The killer was also dubbed the M25 Cat Killer as decapitated victims were found in towns around the motorway.
Post-mortems have already been conducted on some cats and their remains were then frozen.
These will now be examined by Surrey-based ArroGen Veterinary Forensics which has been launched to help the RSPCA bring prosecutions.
ArroGen boss Dr Alexander Stoll said of his new laboratory: “It will be a one-stop shop for investigations involving animals. People who harm animals are more likely to abuse humans.”
